About E1: 165 Days - Prisoner Of The Taliban - Asad Qureshi - Richmond Cricket Club

Asad Qureshi, filmmaker and writer, works in dangerous places. When he sets off to interview Taliban commanders, he finds himself on the wrong side of the camera with a gun to his head and a ten million dollar ransom. 165 Days - Prisoner of the Taliban is his compelling account of his captivity. The emotional turmoil endured by those on the outside battling to save his life: his parents in failing health, a stoical brother facing down the terrorists. This is a haunting story of fear, loss, hope and the strength of the human spirit. The book offers unique behind-the-scenes insights into the workings of a notorious paramilitary network. Above all, it provides a stark reminder of the privilege of freedom.
