Indian traders freed after days of detention in Yiwu

• The two Indian traders, who have been holed up in a hotel in this southern Chinese trading town and facing threats to their lives, were released on Wednesday evening, after more than two weeks of forced detention following a bitter trade dispute with local businessmen.
• Officials from the Indian Consulate in Shanghai escorted the two Indians, Deepak Raheja and Shyamsunder Agrewal, away from the hotel amid heavy police security, and took them to Shanghai, which is 250 km away from this city. The two traders surrendered their documents and promised to abide by a court order preventing them from leaving the country.
