Beaten wife seeks asylum - Indian diplomat in UK being recalled
The story of Indian diplomat in UK, Anil Verma- IAS, and his wife Paromita Verma is getting more ugly by each passing day. The daily mail reports that Anil used to boast to his wife about his diplomatic status and how no one could touch him because of this. While Indian government is recalling the diplomat, Paromita has now applied for asylum citing fear of persecution in India.
The wife of a high-ranking Indian diplomat questioned for allegedly beating her at their official London residence says she is living in fear of her life.
Paromita Verma has gone into hiding with the couple
