Five Afghan aid workers were released after four days in captivity in Afghanistan.
The five - two doctors and an employee of the aid agency Swedish Committee for Afghanistan - and two local government workers were kidnapped on Thursday while driving in the eastern Nuristan province, said the deputy provincial police chief.
Their abductors released them late Sunday after efforts by police and tribal elders, said the province's police chief.
No details of the kidnappers were released.
