http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-envoy-gets-4120-per-month-us-says-pay-nanny -4500-1934791 India’s deputy consul general in New York, Devyani Khobragade, 39, was arrested on Thursday morning for an alleged visa fraud. She is accused of not paying her babysitter $4,500 per month as mandated under the US law. But Devyani Khobragade’s take-home every month is just $4,120, according to her father. Uttam Khobragade, however, told dna that Sangeeta was paid more than the regular monthly salary. “Besides the regular monthly salary, she was paid additional amounts whenever she required. This is nothing but harassment. When Sangeeta started demanding more and more money, we registered a complaint against her in Delhi. The metropolitan magistrate court issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against Sangeeta. We are shocked that Devyani was arrested for no fault of hers and that too when she has diplomatic immunity,” Khobragade said. He said the Delhi high court issued an interim injunction in September, restraining Sangeeta Richards from instituting any action or proceedings against Devyani Khobragade outside India, regarding the terms or conditions of her employment.
