October 14, 2017

TORONTO, Oct 14 (INP) After being held hostage for five years by a Taliban-affiliated terrorist network in the mountains of Afghanistan, Canadian man Joshua Boyle -- who arrived at Toronto's Pearson International Airport with his wife Caitlan Coleman and their children , told reporters inside the Air Canada terminal that the Haqqani network killed a fourth child born in captivity, an infant daughter, and raped his wife. "The stupidity and the evil of the Haqqani networks, kidnapping of a pilgrim and his heavily pregnant wife engaged in helping ordinary villagers in Taliban-controlled regions of Afghanistan was eclipsed only by the stupidity and evil of authorizing the murder of my infant daughter, Martyr Boyle," Boyle said, revealing the murder of his daughter.
