15 kidnapped de-miners released in Herat province
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] At least 15 de-miners kidnapped by unknown gunnies in western Herat
...a venerable old Persian-speaking city in western Afghanistan, populated mostly by Tadjiks, which is why it's not as blood-soaked as areas controlled by Pashtuns...
province have been released from the captivity, local officials said.

Provincial police chief General Majeed Rozi said the de-miners belonged to HALO Trust and were kidnapped on Friday from Kohsan district.

The de-miners were released during an operation which was launched immediately after they were kidnapped by the gunnies.

No group including the Talibs has so far grabbed credit behind the incident.

Local officials earlier blamed Taliban group commanders Mullah Haidar and Mullah Toofan for kidnapping the de-minders. However,
Caliphornia hasn't yet slid into the ocean, no matter how hard it's tried...
the Taliban group has not commented in this regard so far.

Herat is among the relatively peaceful provinces in west of Afghanistan but the anti-government armed myrmidon groups have increased insurgency activities during the recent months.

This comes as murderous Moslems loyal to Mullah Akhtar Mansoor and dissident Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Rasool killed nearly 200 murderous Moslems of each other during an infighting that lasted for almost a week last month.
