NEW DELHI: US authorities subjected Devyani Khobragade
to treatment reserved for hardened criminals. On Tuesday the government
was spurred into action by an email she wrote to her IFS colleagues.
She was not just handcuffed but subjected to strip-search, DNA swabbing
and cavity searches, she wrote.
On Tuesday, the IFS Officers' Association met to ramp up pressure on the government to consider further retaliatory action if Washington did not offer an unconditional apology.
In her email, Khobragade implored the government to ensure her and her children's safety and preserve the dignity of the IFS, which was "unquestionably under siege". She said she broke down several times but tried to maintain her dignity and composure as she was representing her country.
