Three journalists from Pakistan\u2019s northern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province went missing under mysterious circumstances on Oct 15 and were released the next day on October 16.<\/p>\n
Journalist Shahnawaz Tarakzai of Prague-based Mashaal Radio<\/a>, a project of Radio Free Europe, was forcibly taken by men in plainclothes from the Shabqadar Media Center in Charsadda, KP, on the afternoon of October 15th.<\/p>\n Tarakzai\u2019s brother Aftab Mohmand, quoting eyewitnesses, said that three double-cabin vehicles arrived at the Shabqadar Media Center and took Tarakzai into custody on the pretext of taking him to the Shabqadar Police Station. But they never arrived at the police station and they do not have any record of Tarakzai\u2019s arrest, Mohmand said.<\/p>\n
