Three British men have been detained by the Taliban in Afghanistan, U.K. nonprofit group the Presidium Network said on April 1. The group said on Twitter it had been "working closely with two of the families." "We are working hard to secure consular contact with British nationals detained in Afghanistan and we are supporting families," the U.K.'s Foreign Ministry added in a statement. Scott Richards of the Presidium Network told Sky News: "We believe they are in good health and being well treated."
