"Prisoner of War" There are no scales to weigh the misery of a captured holy warrior stuck in one of Afghanistan's most isolated and desolate prisoner-of-war camps. The prisoners are given small amounts of food and water every 24 hours. As many as 1,000 Taliban and Pakistani prisoners died in freight containers during transport to this notorious Sheberghan prisoner-of-war camp.
