New Delhi, Jul 4 (PTI) India today said it is making efforts to secure early release of 17 Indians, who were captured by Iran alongwith four Saudi fishing boats in the Persian Gulf waters. "We are in touch with Iranian authorities.
We want to get them as early as possible," Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon told journalists here when asked about the capture. Iran seized the Saudi Arabian boats which had 17 Indian nationals on board two days back.
The boats were seized around 30 nautical miles from the tightly-guarded Bushehr nuclear plant, off Iran's coast - which is being completed by a Russian firm despite opposition from the west and is due to be commissioned later this year. The documents of the boats were confiscated and the vessels are being held in Bushehr's naval police headquarters in southern Iran, media reports said quoting Iranian officials.
