Victim's Assistance
If you or your U.S. citizen relative or friend has been a victim of crime while in India, please contact the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi (or closest consulate if not in the Delhi Consulate District) at 011-2419-8000. If you are calling from the United States, first dial 011-91-11-.
You should file and request a copy of a local police report, called a First Information Report (FIR), as soon as possible. You should request the FIR from the police station closest to the scene of the crime.
