TEHRAN, Jul. 05 (MNA) – Palestine Intifada Conference Secretary General Hossein Amir-Abdollahian underlined that four Iranian diplomats abducted in Lebanon in 1982 are currently kept in the Zionist regime’s jails and there is no evidence proving their martyrdom.

Amir-Abdollahian urged the United Nations and the Red Cross to seriously take action to reveal the fates of Mohsen Mousavi, Ahmad Motavasselian, Kazem Akhavan and Taqi Rastgar Moghaddam.

He noted that the Parliament will soon begin new measures in line with attempts to determine the fates of the diplomats.

Three Iranian diplomats as well as a reporter of IRNA were abducted in Lebanon on July 4, 1982. None of them have been seen since.
