Two Indian tourists and their local driver disappeared in the Kenyan capital, Nairobi, on a July night. More than two months after the incident, nine policemen have been arrested in connection with the case, which India says it is “closely watching”. The BBC pieces together the mystery and highlights the many unanswered questions.
In one of his last social media posts before he disappeared, Zulfiqar Ahmad Khan shared a video of a roaring lion in Kenya’s Maasai Mara game reserve where he had been holidaying.
“Magical mornings in Maasai Mara. Just imagine when the first encounter you have is with Simba. Breakfast anyone?” he wrote in a typically cheerful post.
The 48-year-old Indian media marketing professional had last worked as the chief operating officer of Balaji Telefilms, a Mumbai-based TV company.
Mr Khan’s LinkedIn profile described him as a “results-driven, people-focussed business leader” with more than 19 years’ of experience in broadcast and digital media companies; and a “high energy, performance-driven coach, mentor and manager”.
