Lynne O'Donnell: Taliban detained, abused and threatened me

Apr 18,2020 8:08 pm

A female journalist says she was forced to publicly retract some of her reports about Afghanistan after being threatened with prison by The Taliban .

Lynne O'Donnell, an Australian columnist for Foreign Policy magazine, alleges that she was detained, abused and forced to post a series of tweets stating her articles were false.

She has since left Afghanistan .

The Taliban confirmed they had detained Ms O'Donnell and claimed she had falsified reports.

Afghanistan has become an increasingly hostile place for journalists, with the current regime cracking down on press freedoms,

Since regaining power Last Year , The Taliban have also been tightening restrictions On Women . They are banned from travelling without a male guardian and secondary schools are shut for girls.

Speaking to The Bbc after The Ordeal , Ms O'Donnell said she had travelled to Kabul to see how the country had changed since she left almost a year ago.

" I went in Good Faith , " She Said , adding that she had gone straight to The Foreign ministry when she had arrived on Sunday to declare that she was in the country as a Foreign Correspondent - a requirement of The Regime .

But not long afterwards, a three-day game of cat-and-mouse with The Taliban ensued, during which she was " detained, abused and threatened" she wrote in about her experience.

She Said she was accused of " breaking their laws" and " offending Afghan culture, " with The Taliban claiming articles she had written - including one about LGBTQ+ people in Afghanistan and another on the Forced Marriage practices of Taliban militants - were lies.

Ms O'Donnell - former bureau chief for news agencies AFP and AP in Afghanistan - stands by her reporting.

She Said The Taliban had asked her to reveal her sources for these articles. But she had refused.

The Taliban foreign ministry said Ms O'Donnell was not asked to reveal her sources, but said she had failed to produce any proof which showed she had not fabricated the reports.

Ms O'Donnell said that after refusing The Taliban 's requests, she was then forced to tweet an apology or face prison.

The Bbc is not responsible for the content of external sites.

She added that she was also made to film a video stating that she had not been coerced into writing The Tweets .

" They were bullies. I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't afraid to some extent. But I wasn't terrified, " she told The Bbc .

She was later released and was allowed to board a plane out of the country.

Speaking about her decision to go back to Afghanistan , She Said : " I knew that I was taking a risk in going there: they Lock Up , they abuse, they beat, they kill journalists who are Afghans. They have a history of taking foreigners hostage to use as leverage. I didn't know that that wouldn't happen to me. "

She added that she would not be returning to Afghanistan as it would be " reckless" to do so.

But writing in Foreign Policy, She Said she would not stop watching or caring.
