There is still no information about the five men reported missing from an area near the McMahon Line (the imaginary line that acts as the border with China), the Arunachal Pradesh government said Monday, adding that it was closely monitoring the situation and that district officials had been directed to provide all necessary help and aid. Amid claims - by the families of the missing men and locals - that they have been abducted by China, the Army has also sent a "hotline" message asking if PLA (People's Liberation Army) troops in the area have seen the men. The Chinese have not yet answered the "hotline" message.
