Two foreigners have been kidnapped from the city of Multan in Pakistan's Punjab province, local police say. 
The Italian foreign ministry said that one of the two is Italian and that it is in contact with the victim's family.
The two are believed to be foreign NGO workers, with the other victim thought to be German.
The two were working for a development agency helping victims of the 2010 floods, reports say.
"Three armed men entered the house and kidnapped two foreign nationals. One of them is an Italian national and the other we believe to be German," local police spokesman Amir Zulfiqar told Reuters.
"So far we have not established a motive but it is too early to say. We are continuing investigations," he added.
