 "2 Indian men deported for molesting Taiwanese girl in China")
Two Indian men, who were detained for over a week in China for allegedly molesting a Taiwanese tourist in a lift of a hotel here, were on Friday deported to India.
"They have left for home today," a senior official of the Indian Embassy said here.
The two men from Haryana, aged around 50 and 28, who were part of traders tour party of a top Indian tea firm, allegedly attempted to molest a 17-year-old Taiwanese tourist on July 7 in the lift after requesting her to pose for photos with them.
The girl, who rushed out of the lift and complained to the hotel authorities, had reportedly not pressed for charges against them.
The two were kept in a detention camp in the outskirts of the city and sent home on Friday.
