Family urges release of Mahmood Shah Habibi after Coyle freed

24th March, 2026 · admin

Habibi

Amu: Welcoming the release of US citizen Dennis Coyle from Taliban custody, the family of Mahmood Habibi renewed calls for his immediate release, urging the Taliban to acknowledge his detention and allow him to return home. In a statement issued by the nonprofit Global Reach, which is working with the family, relatives of Mahmood Habibi said they remain hopeful he will also be released. Habibi, an American citizen, has been missing since August 2022, when his family says he was detained by the Taliban. “My family and I are grateful to hear the news of Dennis’ release,” said Ahmad Habibi, his brother. “We hope that our family will soon have the same feeling of relief when Mahmood is returned home.” Global Reach said it has been assisting the Habibi family since shortly after his disappearance.
