Beijing, Jul 18 (IBNS) An Indian national, detained in China for suspected terror links, has been released, reports said on Saturday.

Rajiv Mohan Kulshrestha is now reportedly on his way back home after being released on Friday night.

He was among 20 foreign tourists, who were detained in Northern China on July 10 on suspected terror links.

After deporting 11 of them  few days later  China held back Kulshrestha, a businessman, five South Africans and three Britons.

They were kept at a detention centre in inner Mongolia, reports quoted Gift of the Givers, a South African Charity as saying.
