Zulfiqar Khan, a former SVP of Star TV & COO of Balaji Telefilms, is said to have been abducted in Kenya over two months ago.

Khan has been untraceable ever since he reached Nairobi and is missing for over 70 days from Kenya.

Senior industry influencers and industry professionals initiated a social media campaign to put pressure on the Indian Embassy and Kenyan authorities to speed up the process of searching for the missing senior media professional from India.

Heartbroken to hear my friend @zakzulfi , Ex SVP Star TV & COO of Balaji missing for over 75days from Kenya. No concrete response from Kenyan embassy. Request GOI to take this up strongly and bring him home. @pmoindia @drsjaishankar @meaindia@KenyaDelhi @IndiainKenya
