AgenciesZulfiqar Ahmad Khan, the former COO (Chief Operating Officer) of Balaji Telefilms has been missing since July. Balaji Telefilms honcho Ekta Kapoor has now urged the Indian government to find him.
The small-screen czarina took to Instagram and shared a post imploring the Government of India to launch a search party for her missing employee. She shared a picture of Khan and posted a caption, "Our ex coo of @balajitelefilmslimited has disappeared from Nairobi almost three months ago. I request @meaindia @kenyaredcross to kindly look into this (sic)."
In an interview with a leading English daily, Kundrra said that he felt that Khan’s disappearance was suspicious and there might be some foul play involved. The ‘Kitani Mohabbat Hai’ star claimed he came across an article hinting that the executive may have been “at the wrong place at the wrong time”. He also said that he wished to bring this matter to the notice of both the governments of India and Kenya, and that was the reason he launched a petition.
“The reason we are asking people to sign the petition is to create a buzz because we need the government to actually step in, especially the Government of Kenya to take the matter seriously. We are trying to create as much noise as possible. His family has no clue about his whereabouts. No one knows where he is, what happened to him. It is a very helpless kind of situation,” the actor was quoted as saying.
Khan, who is also an alumnus of the prestigious Hansraj College Delhi University, has been missing since July 21. Along with him another Indian, Mohammad Zaid Sami Kidwai, and a local taxi driver named Nicodemus Mwania are also missing. Earlier his family had written to the Ministry of External Affairs and the Indian High Commission in Kenya to trace his whereabouts.

Earlier, actor Karan Kundrra also launched a petition to find the former Balaji COO. Taking to Twitter, he wrote, “I’ve known Zulfiqar since ages but worked closely with him during ‘Lock Upp’ (a reality competition TV series) and he’s a gem of a person with a child-like approach towards life which made us click instantly.. he would send me pictures of all the beautiful places that he travelled to.! Unfortunately #zulfiqarkhan.. has been missing since over 75 days and we are worried! I can only imagine what his loved ones must be going through. I urge you to help sign this petition and spread the word.. we want Zulfi back (sic)."
