Three Missing Indians in Iran Rescued by Police: Embassy

  • Iranian police have located and rescued three Indian men from Punjab who disappeared in Tehran nearly a month ago.
  • The men were reportedly kidnapped after arriving in Iran on May 1 while attempting to travel to Australia, with their families alleging a ransom demand of Rs 18 lakh each.
  • The men were assured of lucrative employment opportunities in Australia by travel agents and were transported through a lengthy, indirect "donkey route" to bypass border checkpoints, before allegedly being detained by a Pakistan-based network.
  • On June 3, the Iranian Embassy in India announced their release following a police operation against kidnap suspects, with the consular affairs department coordinating with judicial authorities.
  • The incident led India’s embassy in Tehran to engage strongly with Iranian officials for urgent tracing and highlighted the use of illegal travel routes exploiting vulnerable migrants.
