Gunmen kidnap U.S. aid worker in Afghanistan
Sat Jan 26, 2008 7:53am EST
KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (Reuters) - Gunmen abducted a
U.S. female aid worker on Saturday in Afghanistan's
southern province of Kandahar, the provincial governor
said.
The 49-year-old woman, who was not identified, was
seized from her car while on the way to her office,
Assadullah Khalid told reporters.
"This happened this morning when she was being driven
to her office. Her driver is kidnapped too," Khalid
said.
The woman has lived for years in Kandahar, part of the
main bastion of Taliban insurgents, and was working in
an aid group linked to the agricultural sector, he
said.
When asked who the abductors could be, Khalid said
only "gunmen". He said a search for her was under way.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but in
the past criminal gangs and Taliban have kidnapped a
number of foreigners and Afghans. (Writing by Sayed
