Police in Afghanistan have detained two suspected members of the Taliban-allied Haqqani network in connection with the murder of an Indian writer. Sushmita Banerjee was shot dead last week after being abducted from her home. Her memoir about escaping Taliban-ruled Afghanistan was made into a hit Bollywood film. Banerjee later returned to Afghanistan where she worked as a midwife. Her death is the latest in a string of attacks on women in Afghanistan.
