It’s been two years since Ryan Corbett, a Rochester-area native wrongfully detained by the Taliban, was with his family.
Corbett returned to Afghanistan on July 26, 2022 to check in on his business overseas. Two and a half weeks later, he was detained by the Taliban in a 9x9 basement cell with little access, to food, water, sunlight, or the bathroom.
"It's not just Ryan and his little family. It's the entire United States saying, we need Ryan home. We want him to be alive. And it is not right that he's being held in these conditions for having done nothing wrong," said Anna Corbett, Ryan's wife.
