Freed Taliban hostage Timothy Weeks said he believed his death "was imminent" but he "never gave up hope" of being rescued, after spending three-and-a-half years being held hostage by the Taliban. Mr Weeks and his American colleague Kevin King were released as part of a prisoner exchange deal between the Taliban and the Afghan government. The Australian spoke to reporters on Sunday for the first since his release. "At times I felt my death was imminent and that I would never return to see those that I love again, but I am here, I am alive, I am safe and I am free, so there is nothing else in the world that I need", he said.
