Afghan security forces on March 13 arrested four men on charges of killing a 10-year-old boy kidnapped two days earlier in the southern province of Kandahar. The abductors had demanded a ransom of two million afghani (40,000 US dollars) from the child’s father, a government employee, but killed him when the father could not meet this demand.
