00:04And this is yet another incident in the last few months.
00:07Indians have gone missing and there have been ransom calls.
00:11Is the government of India aware about the fact that the ransom calls have been made from Pakistan
00:15and people have been asked to deposit money in Pakistani accounts?
00:18How are we taking up this issue and what is the response from the Iranian side?
00:21You would have seen a statement made by our embassy as well in Iran.
00:26The three Indian nationals who had landed there some time back.
00:30They are missing and we are in touch with the Iranian authorities.
00:34We are for locating them, for their safety and security and for their eventual return home.
00:41We are in daily touch with the authorities there.
00:46We are receiving good cooperation from the Iranian side and we are also in touch with the families.
00:52Obviously, family members in such situations, they have their own anxiety, etc.
