Two British pensioners, imprisoned by the Taliban for more than five and a half months without charge, are in such perilous health that they could die in custody, a panel of United Nations experts has warned.
Peter Reynolds, 80, and his wife Barbie 76, had been living in Afghanistan for 18 years, running training projects, when they were picked up on February 1 with no explanation. They have spent months locked up in Afghanistan’s most notorious prison then in an underground cell of the intelligence headquarters and Peter has been chained, shackled and hit over the head.
