Indian diplomat who 'assaulted wife' ordered 2 leave Britain

Indian diplomat who 'assaulted wife' ordered to leave Britain

 

An Indian diplomat who allegedly assaulted his wife and then claimed diplomatic immunity from prosecution has been ordered to leave Britain by the Indian government.

Anil Verma, his country’s third most senior diplomat in London, could now face a charge of domestic violence in an Indian court.

Paromita Verma’s allegation that her husband slapped her at the family home on December 11 has provoked a national scandal in India.

However, last night Mr Verma’s parents branded her ‘immoral’ and accused her of trying to destroy their son’s reputation and that of India.

Police were called to the family home in Golders Green last month after neighbours reported screaming and allegedly saw Mrs Verma run into the street covered in blood.

Vishnu Prakash of India’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said: ‘Once he returns to India, the matter will be investigated and appropriate action will be taken under the laws of the land.

‘We take this matter seriously. There is no question of condoning domestic violence.’
