Israeli diplomats repatriated

An altercation broke out following arguments between them during which one of them slapped the official while the two others roughed him up, police said.

Airport officials informed the police about the incident which soon reached the spot and questioned the trio who told them that they were Israeli diplomats and were headed to Nepal on a diplomatic mission.

The entire incident was captured in CCTV camera and the footage has been preserved by the police for investigation.  

“A case under sections 186 (obstructing public servant in discharge of public functions) and 332 (voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servant from his duty) of IPC has been registered against the three diplomats,” a senior police official said, adding the Israeli embassy was immediately informed about the incident.
