The government of India plans to issue a notice for travelers to Iran after not receiving any response from the country’s authorities about the fate of three men who, according to reports, were kidnapped a month ago.
The sources told CNN-NEWS18 that the center is annoying due to the “non-responded behavior of the Iranian authorities” and that plans to issue a notice for travelers who take advantage of the free visa regime installation for the country.
“Three Indian nationals have disappeared in Iran during the past month and families have no relief. Two Indians, Yogesh Panchal and Mohammad Sadeeque, went to Iran for commercial reasons in December 2024 under the recently initiated Visa Exemption Program for Indians. This matter has been intensified to the upper brass of the Iranian side, but there has been no response, “they said.
According to Panchal’s wife, who spoke with CNN-NEWS18, stayed in a shelter in the Bherestan area of Tehran. “My husband is innocent and went to a dried fruit merchant.”
The sources added: “She was talking to Panchal on the phone when he disconnected and said someone entered the room. According to her, she kept trying to call him but did not receive an answer. He would return on December 11, 2024, but did not reach his scheduled return ticket. “
The problem also communicated to the Iranian Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dr. Majid Takht Ravanchi, who visited New Delhi in early January, but there has been no response.
“This is strange that three Indians who were separately have been arrested or kidnapped in the same way. We will issue a strong notice for the Indians who are in the future so that they do not face any problem. “
Meanwhile, the Indian authorities have reviewed with the dried fruit merchants to whom Panchal would meet, but neither did he know them. The Indian government now feels that visa free installation will be misused by illegally arresting the Indians and probably using them as a negotiation chip in the future.
