Taliban Release Dozens of Kidnapped Afghan Civilians
|
[AnNahar] Taliban faceless myrmidons who kidnapped dozens of people in southeast Afghanistan early Saturday released most of them that night but at least two are still being held, officials said.
The faceless myrmidons set up roadblocks in the Sayed Karam district of Paktia province, pulling passengers out of cars at gunpoint on suspicion they were government workers before taking them to an unknown location.
A total of 25 people who had been kidnapped were freed, interior ministry front man Sediq Sediqqi said on his Twitter account Sunday.
The Taliban who have been waging a fierce insurgency since their regime was toppled in late 2001, confirmed the release.
"The suspects placed in durance vile
Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'!
yesterday were released after investigation, only two of them are still under investigation," front man Zabiullah Mujahid said on a recognised Twitter account.
Provincial police chief Zalmai Uryakhail gave different numbers, saying 38 passengers were kidnapped with three still remaining in Taliban captivity.
Earlier this month Kabul secured the release of 19 out of 31 mostly Shiite Afghans kidnapped by gunnies in early February, after what was reported to be a prisoner swap.
