The Taliban Great Escape: A Daring Tale of Freedom

"On April 25, 2011, Four Hundred Eighty, prisoners crawled to freedom in less than 30 minutes. Built on the western edge of Kandahar, Afghanistan’s second-largest city, a few feet from the congested Herat highway and bordered by residential neighborhoods, Sarposa Prison is a hulking symbol of government control in the traditional heartland of the Taliban. Administered by Afghans with the help of American overseers, its five cell blocks house the majority of criminals and insurgents captured in the beleaguered Kandahar Province. In late 2010, the Mujahedeen began work on a 1000-foot tunnel in the city of Kandahar, with the hopes of freeing hundreds of Taliban insurgents. The tunnel, which took five months to dig, bypassed government buildings, watchtowers, barriers topped with razor wire, and went through the concrete floor of an Afghan prison. When the tunnel was more than 300 feet long, the air inside grew thin, so the workers installed a long pipe with holes punched every few feet to deliver fresh air pumped from a large battery-powered bellows in the factory. After four months, with the tunnel more than two football fields long They successfully altered course and, in the spring of 2011, reached the middle of the prison.

To disguise their operation, the Taliban diggers set up a working cement factory near the prison. During the five-month excavation, they sell 150 cinder blocks, "making much profit." Worried that passing NATO tanks might collapse the tunnel, the team parks a truck just feet from the prison to test its integrity. The diggers veer off course, adding 350 feet to the total length of the tunnel. During the escape, prison spies are discovered. They are beaten and dragged through the stifling tunnel in handcuffs. Nearly 500 Taliban exit through a breach in the prison’s political wing.
