Voters targeted after Afghan polls

The Taliban has released footage of its fighters stopping Afghan citizens to see if they have voted, and abducting those who have. The video footage, obtained by Al Jazeera and broadcast on Monday, showed Taliban fighters manning an impromptu checkpoint, stopping vehicles and demanding to see people's fingers. On election day indelible ink was used as an anti-fraud measure to prevent people voting twice. Before the polls, there had been rumours that Taliban fighters would use the ink to identify those who had voted and cut off their fingers. The footage showed men who the Taliban accused of having voted being marched, blindfolded, by Taliban fighters and reprimanded for "standing in line with the Jews" by casting their vote.
