NEW DELHI: A Pakistani diplomat and his driver were allegedly assaulted by some unidentified people in south Delhi on Monday evening, according to the Pakistan high commission which has demanded an immediate probe and security for its staff here.
The Pakistan high commission has lodged a strong protest with the ministry of external affairs over the issue, its spokesman Manzoor Ali Memon said on Monday night.
He said Zargam Raza, first secretary (trade), was going home in Vasant Kunj from office in Chanakyapuri area when two persons on a motorcyle hurled abuses at them near Jawaharlal Nehru University campus at around 6.30pm.
When this was objected to, Raza and his driver Haider were allegedly beaten up by some people there, Memon alleged.
He said the high commission wrote a strong letter to the MEA demanding an immediate and thorough inquiry into the incident.
The high commission also asked the government to ensure safety and security of its staff as per the Vienna Convention and international diplomatic practices.
