Search web search Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Weekend Edition Africa Europe Latin America Middle East North America Gunmen kidnap Dutch aid worker and Afghan driver By KATHARINE HOURELD,Associated Press Writer - Monday, October 25 Send IM Story Print KABUL, Afghanistan – Gunmen seized a Dutch aid worker and his Afghan driver in northern Afghanistan on Monday, a local government official said. Four gunmen took the two men out of their car in Takhar province and drove them west toward neighboring Kunduz province, said Takhar Governor Abdul Jabar Taqwa, quoting witnesses. The two were working with an aid group helping disabled people. Police and intelligence officials are trying to track the group and the Kunduz authorities have been informed, Taqwa said. Dutch Foreign Ministry spokesman Bart Rijs confirmed a Dutch man and his Afghan driver had been kidnapped, but gave few details and did not release the names of the men or the aid group. "Our embassy in Kabul is in constant contact with the Afghan authorities and the Netherlands will support the Afghan authorities wherever necessary and possible to bring this case to a positive conclusion," Rijs said. Afghanistan is becoming increasingly dangerous for aid workers. In August, 10 members of a Christian medical team _ six Americans, two Afghans, one German and a Briton _ were ambushed and later killed by gunmen in neighboring Badakhshan province. The team was attacked as they were returning to Kabul after their two-week mission in the remote Parun valley of Nuristan province, about 160 miles (260 kilometers) north of Kabul. Last month, Linda Norgrove, a British aid worker, was kidnapped in Kunar province in eastern Afghanistan. She died of head and chest injuries caused by a grenade thrown by a U.S. serviceman during a failed Oct. 8 rescue attempt. The kidnappings, along with Afghan President Hamid Karzai's intention to ban foreign security guards, has led to talk of a large-scale operations shutdown by private reconstruction companies. Monday's abductions were also a further indication of the growing instability in northern Afghanistan, which had been considered safer than areas of the south and east where the insurgency has been fiercest. In the south on Monday, insurgents attacked NATO and Afghan troops hunting for a senior Taliban leader in Helmand province. The gunbattle and a subsequent airstrike killed 15 insurgents, NATO said, although a local official initially reported a higher death toll. Around a dozen gunmen on motorcycles fired on the international forces as they were preparing to destroy a bomb-making factory and weapons cache they found during a search of several compounds in the village of Maigan. Troops killed them and then called in the airstrike to destroy the compounds. Also Monday, Karzai said he was standing firmly behind his decision to bar private security companies from operating in Afghanistan starting Dec. 17. The international community says that decision threatens to force the shutdown of hundreds of millions of dollars worth of projects. The Afghan president has wanted for years to force out foreign security firms, accusing them of luring away the most capable members of the country's armed forces by offering higher salaries, paying money to warlords and drug traffickers and entering houses and seizing property. On Monday, he repeated an offer to have the international community develop a list of aid projects that need protection by private security guards. He said the Afghan government could review the list and possibly make exemptions. It's unclear whether the proposal will be accepted by those in the international community who have called for an across-the-board exemption for companies working on internationally funded development projects until Afghan security forces are more capable of taking over security. ___ Associated Press writers Rahim Faiez in Kabul, Mirwais Khan in Kandahar and Mike Corder in Amsterdam contributed to this report.
