Indian Diplomat arrested for visa fraud in NY

An Indian diplomat in NY - Devyani Khobragade - was recently arrested in New York. According to the U.S. attorney’s office, Khobragade was helping her nanny fill out fake visa forms that claimed the diplomat was paying her $4,500 (U.S.) a month, which works out to $3,927 a month more than the woman’s actual $3.31-an-hour salary, which they documented in a secret contract. The irony of the whole episode is that in the past year, Khobragade has repeatedly spoken to the media in connection to her duties as an advocate for “underprivileged” women’s rights. And now she seems caught red handed for taking advantage of her own nanny.
