The Indian diplomat at the centre of a standoff between Washington and New Delhi asked a court on Tuesday to postpone her first hearing while a settlement is pursued.

The lawyer for Devyani Khobragade sent a letter to Judge Sarah Netburn, of the US District Court for the southern district of New York, requesting a delay beyond next Monday.

Daniel Arshack's letter alleged that federal prosecutors sought to "rapidly" proceed to indictment by next Monday.

Khobragade, 39, was charged on December 12 with supplying false documents to support a visa application for her Indian housekeeper.
