NDTV has fresh details on the spat, government sources say that the transfer orders apply to Anil Verma and his wife since she's on a diplomatic passport.

But sources have confirmed that she has gone missing.

Sources say that after the Dec 11th incident, the couple failed to patch up and Anil Verma left his home in early January.

Source say Paromita's uncle, an Englishman, had threatened Verma when he returned to the flat two days later.

They say his immunity is not being waived because the Indian government will take action on his return and that the UK is questioning India's ability to do that.
