A female member of Afghanistan's parliament has been kidnapped by the Taliban in eastern Ghazni province and is being held in exchange for four insurgents detained by the government, provincial officials said Thursday, according to AP. Amanullah Kamrani and Hamida Gulistani, both members of the Ghazni provincial council, confirmed that Fariba Ahmadi Kakar was kidnapped last Saturday while driving from Kabul to the southern province of Kandahar.
