A Tanzanian student was assaulted and partially stripped by a mob in the southern Indian city of Bangalore after a Sudanese student's car ran over and killed a local woman.
The mob attacked the 21-year-old woman and her three friends - all Tanzanians - as they were passing by the accident site a little later.
The crowd chased the young woman and "removed her top", police said.
Tanzanian embassy officials have sought a report into the incident.
The incident took place on Sunday night, but was first reported only on Tuesday.
Police told BBC Hindi's Imran Qureshi in Bangalore that a mob gathered in Hessarghatta area after an allegedly drunk student from Sudan ran his car over a woman sleeping on the roadside.
The mob beat up the man and set fire to his car, but he managed to escape. Full story...
