Talibs boot Yvonne Ridley
The Taliban escorted British journalist Yvonne Ridley to Pakistan after releasing her from a 10-day detention. Ridley was handed over to Pakistani officials by a Taliban protocol official who escorted her from Kabul. One official said Ridley would reach Peshawar Monday night. The Taliban said Ridley, a reporter for London's Sunday Express who was arrested in Afghanistan on September 28 for entering the country illegally, would be handed over to the British High Commissioner (ambassador) to Pakistan.
