KANDAHAR (Pajhwok): Police have detained a four-member group of kidnappers in southern Kandahar province, an official said on Saturday.
Deputy police chief Lt. Co. Wali Mohammad Askar told Pajhwok Afghan News the group had kidnapped a resident of Kandahar City, the provincial capital, Mohammad Younas two weeks back.
He said the kidnappers had sought five million Pakistani rupees in ransom from Younas family, but his family couldn’t arrange such a huge amount.
The kidnappers then reduced the ransom money to 1.2 million rupees but the family offered half a million . . .
