JALALABAD (PAN-led forces have detained six people during an operation in the eastern province of Nangarhar, officials said on Sunday.

The arrests came during an International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) operation in the Mimla area of Khogyani district.

The individuals were arrested Saturday night on the charge of having links to militants, the district chief, Mohammad Hasan, told Pajhwok Afghan News.

ISAF soldiers, who were air-dropped from helicopters in the Bar Mullahkhel village at 9:45pm, detained four people from one house and two others from another, said tribal elder Gul Agha.
