New Delhi, June 18 Forty Indian construction workers have been kidnapped in the oil-rich Mosul town of strife-torn Iraq, presumably by Islamic militants but no ransom demands have yet been received.
The workers, mostly from Punjab and other parts of northern India, were working on a construction project in Mosul in northern Iraq which has been captured by Sunni militant group ISIS. Reports said that the kidnapping took place while they were being evacuated yesterday.
