Lynne O’Donnell: Taliban detained, abused and threatened me
Australian Lynne O’Donnell says she was forced to post tweets that publicly retracted her articles. …
Speaking about her decision to go back to Afghanistan, she said: “I knew that I was taking a risk in going there: they lock up, they abuse, they beat, they kill journalists who are Afghans. They have a history of taking foreigners hostage to use as leverage. I didn’t know that that wouldn’t happen to me.”
