Pregnant US woman Caitlan Coleman missing in Afghanistan with husband
The family of a pregnant American woman missing with her husband in Afghanistan have made a fresh appeal for her safe return.Caitlan Coleman, 27, is due to give birth in January and needs urgent medical attention, her father told the Associated Press news agency. James Coleman said she had been travelling with her Canadian husband across Central Asia. There are fears they were abducted, but no ransom has been demanded. No militant group has said it is holding the couple and AP says when it contacted the Taliban two months ago, a spokesman said no Taliban members were involved. The couple last contacted their family on 8 October from what Mr Coleman described as an "unsafe" part of Afghanistan. It is not clear how they entered Afghanistan and what exactly they were doing there - they had also travelled through Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan. Posted by: tipper 2012-12-31 |
