The outrage over a senior Indian diplomat's arrest by federal authorities earlier this month is officially at the insane stage. Indian officials and politicianswho are gearing up for elections season next yearare ratcheting up the rhetoric about the United States. Like flag-burning and throwing rocks at a Domino's in Mumbai, as well as this: "Yashwant Sinha, a former BJP foreign minister, has said that India should now arrest the same-sex partners of US diplomats after a court ruling last week that upheld a colonial-era ban on homosexuality."
Devyani Khobragade, a deputy consul at the Indian Consulate in New York City, was charged with visa fraud and falsifying statements in her application for her nanny to come to America. U.S. Attorney Preet Bharaha's office alleged that she claimed she was paying the woman $4,500, but it was actually only $573. Khobragade's arrest, which included a strip-search and cavity-search, have been denounced by Indian officials, who then removed security barriers (to prevent bombings) outside the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi.
