NEW DELHI: The Islamic State jihadist group (ISIS) kidnapped four Indian teachers working in Libya two days ago, but the government on Friday said it has "secured" the release of two of them.
"Four Indians abducted in Libya ... I am happy we have been able to secure the release of Lakshmikant and Vijay Kumar. Trying for other two," external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj said.
MEA spokesman Vikas Swarup said the two Indians have been brought back safely to University of Sirte and efforts were continuing for the remaining two. However, it was not immediately known how they were freed.
