  • Hassina Syed,  business woman, with her two daughters Sana (age 3)and Hirah(2), photographed at her home and business the Gandamack Lodge Hotel.  She also rents armoured cars, runs a farming business, a travel agency and a bedding shop. She is married to Peter Jouvenal an ex soldier, journalist and westerner who has lived in Afghanistan for twenty years.<br />
<br />
She experienced first hand, how terrifying the Taliban could be. She says: <br />
<br />
‘I opened up the Chadri (mesh front of the burkha) to see a tea-cup and suddenly from the back, a Taliban soldier came with a big stick, shouting at me. If you get beaten by a Taliban, you could die. <br />
“I made myself look as old and bad as possible because if  they ( the Taliban) saw you looking even a bit beautiful, they could come to your house and take you as one of their wives”<br />
<br />
“For me having money is dangerous, kidnapping is a big problem. A friend’s uncle was kidnapped; they wanted $150 000, He was so mad he said, ‘I am not paying that he is an old man!’  Eventually they dropped the price and said OK, just cover our fuel and the bribe for the police (30 000 dollars)."

  • Worker carries a portrait of a male model, a fixture on its way to another premises in Soho, central London. The panel shows a well-dressed model leaning against a bar, the epitome of health, wealth, good looks and success. He seems to be staring at us while being transported along the street towards a nearby business where the picture is needed to decorate a retail wall. We see rather prominently, the arms of the man carrying the portrait and those of a passer-by while the model apparently looks on helplessly - as if being kidnapped.

  • Rohullah  Nikpay,21, Bronze medal winner,  photographed at his gym.  Rohullah is from a typically poor Afghan  background, A  Hazara, one of the most marginalized tribes in his country. He spent several years in a refugee camp before emigrating to Iran during the Taliban years. When he returned  Taekwondo   became an important  part of his life, supporting himself only  with  help from his family and a  menial job. It was, then, a hugely emotional experience, for him to return to Kabul after his success in  Beijing to find crowds of cheering Afghans. Apart from meeting with the president the first thing he did was hire him self  a body guard: any -body in Afghanistan with money is a target for kidnapping. Now the target  for Rohullah is   2012 in London . He trains every night with the Afghan team for two hours every night and 3-4 times a day when a competition is due.  His responsibility is much more now he has reputation to defend.
