He said the government is in touch with the high commissioner in New Delhi to get the identities of the suspects.
However, Lamola made it clear that the arrested pair is definitely not Atul and Ajay Gupta, who are wanted by authorities in South Africa and Interpol.
The Gupta brothers have been on the run since their exit from South Africa in recent years.
The two were reportedly arrested on Friday in India on charges of abetting the suicide of prominent Dehrandun-based builder Satinder Singh Sahni.
According to news reports, the prominent builder named them in a suicide note.
