Iraq Foreign Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari has said, they do not have any substantial evidence about the fate of 39 Indians who are missing in Mosul since 2014.

Mr Al-Jaafari, who is on a visit to India, told this to reporters in New Delhi yesterday. He said, he is not hundred percent sure whether the Indians are alive or dead.

The visiting Foreign Minister, however, said, his country will do its best to find them. 39 Indians were taken hostage by the Islamic State terror group in Mosul in 2014.
