Gunmen have stormed the Indian city of Mumbai killing at least 101 people and holding hundreds more as hostage. The city authorities have said that hostages held at the luxury Taj Mahal Hotel have been released, however, some people might still be left. Among them was MEP Jan Masiel, Poland's foreign ministry spokesperson Piotr Paszkowski told TVN24. At the nearby upscale Oberoi hotel, another Polish citizen was located and he too has been released, according to his wife who spoke with TVN24.

"We don't have any news, not from the police, nor hospitals that among the wounded are any Polish citizens," Paszkowski told TVN24. "The police said that this is not final information, but according to a list, which is very complicated, there are no Polish last names."
