2 freed men to return on Wednesday?

Mr Vijay Kumar’s family has not been informed about the possible date of his return
BENGALURU: Though it is more than 48 hours since the two teachers from Karnataka, Vijay Kumar and Lakshmikanth, were released by ISIS terrorists in Libya, there is no clarity on when they will return to India.
Mr Vijay Kumar’s family has not been informed about the possible date of his return. His wife Sunita said that she had not been able to contact him again after hearing from him that he was safe. “He has not called me today (Sunday). Though I tried contacting him, I could not get through to him. Even the Indian Embassy has not contacted us,” she said.
But Mr Vijay Kumar’s brother Hemanth said that it is expected that he will reach home on Wednesday. “Vijay had contacted our sister on Saturday and told her that he would be back on Wednesday. However, it is not confirmed as the flight tickets are not yet booked,” he added.
Meanwhile, Lakshmikanth’s wife Pratibha, said that she was hoping that her husband would be back soon. “Even we are not sure when he will return. When he called us the last time, he informed me that he would be back very soon. However, no flight tickets have been booked so far. They are apparently waiting for the release of two other Indians, who are been still held captive by the ISIS. They have plans to come together. We don’t have any idea on when the two will be released. We are anxiously waiting for his return and it would take at least 3-4 days.”
