The Libyan authorities told him that the Bangladeshi is in their custody.
Zahidur's family said he flew to the UK on 3 March and reached Libya's capital Tripoli on 21 March.
The journalist went missing on 23 March, Zahidur's wife Taslima Rahman said.
A day before he went missing, Zahidur took several photos at Green Square in Tripoli on 22 March.
Taking photos is banned in Tripoli and that may be the reason for the journalist going missing.
