KABUL (Pajhwok): Scores of Afghan interpreters who worked with British troops on the frontline in southern Helmand province have been allowed to settle in the UK.
Threatened by militants, some 450 interpreters travelled to the UK with their families under the original scheme that was unveiled seven years ago. But many of them were found ineligible.
The government decided to expand the relocation scheme on Friday, when Defence Secretary Ben Wallace hailed the decision as the honourable thing to do.
