India Friday told the US to withdraw one of its diplomats involved in the case of Indian diplomat Devyani Khobragade after she was asked to fly back to New Delhi.

Official sources said the US embassy was “asked to withdraw forthwith a US diplomat of similar rank as Khobragade”.

“We have reason to believe that the officer was closely involved in the processes related to the (Khobragade case) and the subsequent unilateral action by the US side,” a source said.
