TIL Desk/World/New Delhi/ External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said on Wednesday night that she was in constant touch with the Indian Embassy in Zimbabwe and assured that all Indians were safe in the country where unrest has triggered speculation of a coup.
Zimbabwe’s Army took control of the country and said it had President Robert Mugabe and his wife in custody. Swaraj said there was no cause for concern for Indians.
‘I am in constant touch with Indian Embassy in Zimbabwe. Our Ambassador has informed me that Indians there are safe and there is no cause for concern,’ she tweeted.
