Excerpts:

KABUL, Afghanistan (CNN) — A body found in Afghanistan has been identified as that of an Indian telecommunications engineer who was kidnapped earlier in the week by Taliban members, a regional police chief said.

A statement from the Taliban demanded that all Indian workers leave Afghanistan within 24 hours or the hostage would be killed.

After the body was found, a Taliban spokesman said the group had not planned to kill the hostage but when he tried to escape, they shot him.

Police Chief Mohammed Nabeel Malahkili said the body discovered in Zabol province on Sunday had been beheaded.
