Afghanistan: Taliban threaten to kill German tourists
(Aki) - The Islamic Taliban militants who claim to be holding two German engineers kidnapped on Wednesday have threatened to kill them if the Afghan authorities continue to hunt them down. Efforts to trace them have been underway in the district of Jaghto. The threats were sent to the Pajhwok local news agency via a telephone call from an armed group which is accusing the pair of being spies. The two Germans were seized along with five Afhans who were working for a UN project in Afghanistan. The Afghans were released after just a few hours. Posted by: Fred 2007-07-20 |
