India's Supreme Court has said Italy's envoy does not have legal immunity, in an escalating row over Rome's refusal to return two marines charged with murdering two Indian fishermen.
India's Chief Justice Altamas Kabir said the court had "lost trust" in Italy's ambassador Daniele Mancini.
The court reiterated last week's order for him not to leave the country.
The marines were allowed to go home to vote in last month's polls on condition that they return to stand trial.
Mr Mancini had given his personal assurance that the two marines - Massimilian Latorre and Salvatore Girone - would return within four weeks so they could stand trial in India.
