The UK government employed a group of local Afghan's to guard its embassy. But, when the fecal matter hit the circular cooling device they just left them twisting in the wind. Insuring that the Taliban will hunt them down for having the audacity to earn living that supported them and their families. What is the UK's government reason for abandoning these men?
More than 100 guards at the British embassy in Kabul have been told they are not eligible for UK government protection because they were hired through an outsourced contractor, the Guardian has learned.
Most of the 125-strong team of security personnel, employed by the global security firm GardaWorld, have been given informal notice that they no longer have jobs guarding the embassy, several said.
The guards, some of whom had been working for the UK embassy for over a decade, described feeling abandoned by British officials and their employer. Many have been forced into hiding, fearing for their lives.
The U.S. government which also had a contract with GardaWorld helped more than 100 employees to escape Afghanistan following the collapse of the government and the Taliban successfully taking control of the country.
