Islamic Republic of Iran has called for establishment of a fact-finding committee to study the disappearance of four Iranian diplomats in Lebanon. In an interview with Al-Alam News Network on Tuesday, the political attaché of Islamic Republic of Iran’s Embassy in Lebanon, Ali-Reza Ayati has said: “Iran has called upon the UN Chief Ban Ki Moon to establish a fact-finding committee to study and launch an investigation into the disappearance of four Iranian diplomats in Beirut.”

Many Lebanese believe that the case of kidnapped Iranian diplomats is a humanitarian topic and the international community and legal organizations should try harder to solve this case and to determine the fate of these diplomats, twenty-seven years after their abduction.
