6 Hostages Released Inter-Tribe Exchange on Pak-Afghan Border
Pakistan Milatary
Islamabad - Arab Today
Six crew members of a Pakistani government helicopter taken hostage after it crash-landed in Afghanistan's east have been released, an Pakistani foreign ministry said Saturday.
The crew "was released in an inter-tribe exchange on the Pakistan-Afghan border (and) arrived in Islamabad today," Pakistani foreign ministry spokesman Nafees Zakaria said in a statement.
All six people -- five Pakistanis and a Russian navigator -- are "safe and in good health," he added.
After it crash-landed in Logar province on August 4, Taliban militants set the Mi-17 transport helicopter on fire and took the six-member crew to a Taliban-controlled area.
