DHAKA, Bangladesh - The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said it would take strict action against diplomat Kazi Anarkali over the alleged possession of narcotics at her home in Indonesia.

Representatives of the Foreign Ministry remarked in a Wednesday parliamentary committee meeting in Dhaka.

According to Muhammad Faruk Khan, chairman of Bangladesh's Parliamentary Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, "she is currently placed as an officer on special duty." A committee is also at work. If she is found guilty, she could face the maximum administrative penalty."

He also stated that a letter was sent to the Indonesian government to learn more about what happened there.

Anarkali, the former deputy chief of the Jakarta Mission, was detained and brought back from Jakarta for allegedly having a large amount of marijuana in her home.

In the first week of July, the Indonesian government's narcotics control authority raided Anarkali's apartment in Jakarta. She was detained but later released due to diplomatic immunity, specifically at the request of the Indonesian government.
