In a remarkable turn of events, nine Indian sailors who had been held captive by Libyan rebels since January have finally been released. They were subsequently taken into captivity by Az Zawiya, a local armed group near Al Maya Port in Zawia City. Ultimately, the idea was to call Mrs. Tabassum for assistance. Tabassum Mansoor, known for her unwavering dedication to the welfare of Indian nationals in Libya, utilized her extensive network and connections to navigate the complex web of negotiations with the rebel group. Her contacts in the House of Representatives proved invaluable in securing the release of the sailors.
