Jalandhar: Levelling serious allegations against immigration and police officials at IGI airport in Delhi, an Indian-origin woman of US has stated that she was detained in a room where there was no woman officer and was threatened, besides being asked personal and offending questions.
US-resident Rupinder Kaur, who is also filing an affidavit with US embassy in New Delhi about her mental harassment by Indian officials when she landed at IGI Airport on September 29, has also alleged in a written complaint that the male officials gave her "unprofessional looks" and kept on visiting the room one-by-one where she was detained.
"They asked me very personal questions such as who fathered my daughter and my 'intimate relations' with Harmandeep Rai, who accompanied me in the journey. I felt embarrassed and completely shocked that these questions had nothing to do with my identity. I was intentionally forced to stay there for more than three hours. Each immigration agent kept repeating the same questions such as if I am a runaway and who fathered my daughter. Later, they told me that I am free to go as they could not find anything to hold me any longer," she alleged.
