The Pakistan Embassy in Iraq is consistently in touch with the Iraqi officials on the issue of two missing Pakistanis, said Foreign Office spokesman Masood Khan.
"We have assigned our embassy in Iraq to take every possible step to know the whereabouts and to get them free if they are taken hostage," the spokesman told the BBC Radio, monitored here on Monday.
He said Pakistan's Charged' Affaires in Iraq had told us that two Pakistanis, Raja Azad Khan and Sajjad Naeem, were missing.
Their colleagues feared that perhaps they had been kidnapped, he said, adding they were working for a Kuwait-based company, Al-Tamimi Group, he added.
To a question, the spokesman said the people, who had abducted them, neither made any contact with us nor had they sent any message to the government.
"For the time being, we were collecting evidences and would use every possible means for their search and release," he said.
"We share our sympathies with the grieved families and want to assure them that the government of Pakistan is making every possible effort to trace out them and to get them free," he maintained.
