Via Star-Telegram and Religion of Peace:
A Southwestern Baptist Theological seminary graduate apparently has been killed after being kidnapped by gunmen in Afghanistan a month ago, a humanitarian aid foundation reported Tuesday.
Cyd Mizell, 50, an aid worker who taught Afghan women income-producing skills such as sewing, and driver Muhammad Hadi, another aid worker, were abducted Jan. 26 in Kandahar, Afghanistan.
They served with the nonprofit Asian Rural Life Development Foundation.
“Although we have no confirmation of their deaths, we have received information over the past few days indicating that our two aid workers have been killed,” foundation officials said on the organization’s Web site, www.arldf.net.
In late January 500 Afghan women staged a rare protest urging the release of the kidnapped American aid worker in Kandarhar province.
