We are pretty clear that one indian pilot was captured in injured state and shifted to CMH.
There was no point mentioning that if that wasn't already the case.
Two more were being hunted.
Even the PM claimed to have two in custody.
Wing Cmdr Abhi was arrested afterwards, and in the video of his capture, the locals can be clearly heard talking about getting to his other mate who ejected right above him. (Any one speaking potowhari can confirm that from the video).
So the thing is...
india only choose to accept the MIA status for WC Abhi, and completely refuse to acknowledge the MIA status for two other pilots, to not bear the shame of losing two jets and three pilots.
Hence, easily giving away their pilots to be kept in Pakistan and used as intel sources.
So is this exactly what we refer to as abandoning your soldiers for political reasons? Did they just condemn their pilots to life long imprisonment or death? Or is Pakistan playing a smart game by only acknowledging the capture of who they claim to be missing, and leaving it up to them to accept the missing status for the other two before they are also acknowledged?
