Three Foreign Nationals and a Local Interpreter Arrested: MoI
2025-02-27
[ToloNews] The Ministry of Interior has confirmed to TOLOnews that three foreign nationals and their Afghan interpreter have been arrested in the country.

Abdul Mateen Qane, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Interior, told TOLOnews that the detainees include two British citizens who hold Afghan identification documents, an American of Chinese origin, and their translator.

According to Abdul Mateen Qane, these individuals were arrested for "specific reasons," and efforts are ongoing to resolve their cases.

The spokesperson further stated: "Regarding the arrest of foreign nationals, two of them are British citizens with Afghan ID cards and passports, one is an American of Chinese origin, and a translator has also been detained for certain considerations."

Some experts believe that host countries have the right to detain foreign individuals if they violate local laws.

Zalmai Afghan Yar, a military affairs analyst, told TOLOnews: "Any foreign citizen traveling to Afghanistan who acts against governance policies will naturally be detained. I hope countries will not engage in confrontation over the enforcement of policies and will resolve these matters diplomatically. If they are guilty, they should be punished, and if not, they should be released."

Previously, a former Canadian soldier accused of violating Afghanistan’s law was arrested who was then released following Qatar
