He can be heard in the footage as well, "They hit me. They struck me. I'm a citizen of Australia. You struck me "Armed members of the Taliban look at that.



The Taliban beat and kidnapped the Australian citizen as he tried to flee the country, but was eventually set out at the pleasure of his family. He's still hiding in Afghanistan. In australia are his brother and his wife. The man is a member of Hazara, an ethnic and religious minority who have been persecuted and bloodshed over decades by the Taliban. When tens of thousands flee to Kabul Airport, Hazaras' claims of serious harassment have become common at Taliban checkpoints and denying entry to the airport.


At the beginning of July, according to the human rights organisation Amnesty International, the Taliban tortured and killed nine Hazara men in Afghanistan, plundering their homes in Ghazni province. Three of the nine men were tortured to death, one of them was scarred with a scarf and cut off their muscles, according to eyewitnesses.
