KABUL, Aug. 18 (Xinhua) -- Taliban militants kidnapped four Afghan engineers in the southern Kandahar province, the police said Saturday.
The engineers, who were building a bridge, were abducted in Shah Wali Kot district in northern Kandahar on Friday afternoon, provincial police chief Sayed Aqa Saqib told Xinhua.
The engineers were working for the government-initiated Afghan national solidarity program, the police chief said.
He also said local citizens had ensured the engineers' safety, so they went to the area to work.
