The Taliban have released a propaganda video which shows the moment U.S. Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl was handed over to American troops in eastern Afghanistan.
The trade, which was announced with great fanfare on Saturday, has since become an embarrassment for President Barack Obama as details have emerged of Sgt Bergdahl’s possible desertion and Republicans have accused the President of illegally failing to notify Congress over the prisoner swap.
The video shows Bergdahl clean shaven, with a shaved head and dressed in a white salwar kameez waiting in a white pick-up truck as Taliban militants stand outside.
Armed gunmen can also be seen standing on the hills around the valley as Black Hawk helicopters draw closer to the meeting point.
