Taliban yet to release US and Australian professors
Militant group says prisoner exchange with Afghan government has not happened
An Australian and an American professor in Taliban custody who were supposed to be freed in a prisoner exchange this week are still yet to be released, according to a spokesman from the militant group.
The Afghan government said earlier this week it would “conditionally release” three militants from the Taliban-linked Haqqani network as part of an apparent exchange for Timothy Weekes, 50, and Kevin King, 63, who were kidnapped by the group in Kabul in 2016.
