Can you answer this, please

Hello. Is the sentence below written in present simple tense? And is this correct: (He - pronoun) (Is - linking verb) (whisked - participle) (away - adverb)? Thank you very much in advance for your help. Kind regards.

"He is whisked away."

It is the present simple passive of the verb WHISK. 'Is' is functioning as an auxiliary rather than as a linking verb.
