An Afghan official who worked on dangerous UK-funded projects, says he has been “forgotten” by the British government – and is now hiding from the Taliban in Kabul.
“The kids are scared,” he told openDemocracy. “They don’t go out… they’re asking me what’s happening. We’re under threat.”
The official, who has spent years working on British efforts to combat the narcotics trade in Afghanistan, believes his identity is known by the Taliban and fears retribution.
