TKD MONITORING: Children of British Couple Detained in Afghanistan Urge Their Release The Guardian has reported that the children of a British couple imprisoned in Afghanistan are calling on the interim Afghan government to release their parents before they “die in custody.” The couple, 76-year-old Barbie Reynolds and her 80-year-old husband Peter, have reportedly been held for five and a half months without formal charges. According to the report, they were separated and held in a maximum-security prison until about eight weeks ago. Their children stated that the United Nations is expected to issue a statement on Monday urging the couple’s immediate release. Previously, the Ministry of Interior confirmed the couple's detention, stating that they were being held for specific reasons and that efforts to resolve the case are ongoing.
