( Reuters ) - A German citizen has vanished in Afghanistan and the government believes he was most likely abducted, a spokesman for the German Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday.
"A German citizen is missing in Afghanistan," Foreign Ministry spokesman Martin Jaeger told a regular news conference. "All indications are that he's been kidnapped."
He gave few details about the German, saying only that he was neither working for the German government, a German relief agency nor as a journalist.
