TEHRAN, Jan. 25 (Xinhua) -- Iran said on Monday that it is waiting to receive more information about its tanker seized by Indonesian authorities.

There has been some contradictory information about the seizure of the tanker and "we have asked Indonesia to give us more information," said Saeed Khatibzadeh, spokesman of the Iranian Foreign Ministry, during his press conference.
