Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs via CNN NewsourceBy Mostafa Salem(CNN) — A British couple who had been held in detention by the Taliban in Afghanistan have been released and have flown out of the country, the Qatari foreign ministry said in a statement. Peter, 80, and Barbie Reynolds, who is in her mid-70s, were arrested by the Taliban from their home in Afghanistan’s Bamyan Province in February. During his detention, Peter Reynolds was suffering from two eye infections and intermittent tremors in his head and left arm, raising serious concerns. Barbie Reynolds had anemia during detention, leaving her weak and frail, likely due to months of inadequate food quality and quantity, UN experts said. “The Qatari embassy in Kabul provided them with critical support, including access to their doctor, delivery of medication, and regular communication with their family,” the source told CNN.
