A British couple imprisoned in Afghanistan by the Taliban will face a court hearing on Thursday, more than a month after their arrest, their family members have said.
Peter Reynolds, 79 and his wife Barbie Reynolds, 75, were detained by Taliban authorities on 1 February while they were returning to their home in central Afghanistan’s Bamyan province. The couple, who married in 1970 in Kabul and have been living inside Afghanistan for the past 18 years, were running several education and training programmes for girls and women.
