Pakistani television journalist Faizullah Khan receives sweets following his release by authorities in Afghanistan as he arrives at Torkham yesterday. Pakistan appealed to Afghan President Hamid Karzai in July 2014 to issue a pardon to a journalist facing a four-year jail term in Afghanistan for ”contacting terrorists”. Faizullah Khan, a reporter with the private Pakistani TV channel ARY news, was arrested in April by Afghan security forces in Nangarhar province.
