Police in India are investigating allegations that a Saudi Arabian diplomat raped two Nepali maids at his home near the capital Delhi.
The women were rescued from the house in the suburb of Gurgaon on Monday after a tip-off from an NGO.
They say they were held captive by his family and starved and sexually abused by them and other Saudi nationals.
The Saudi embassy denied the charges. Police say the official has diplomatic immunity and is in the embassy.
