Canadian Ex-Soldier Detained in Kabul, PM Trudeau Promises Action
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has assured that his government is taking the detention of David Lavery, a former Canadian soldier, by the Taliban very seriously. The incident occurred when Lavery was arrested at Kabul airport last Monday after flying into Afghanistan.
The Canadian government has been providing consular assistance to the Lavery family while carefully managing the sensitive situation. Trudeau made these remarks at the conclusion of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Peru.
According to CTV News, Lavery has been a frequent visitor to Afghanistan over the years, offering consulting services through his private security company based in Kabul.
