Mystery surrounds man who travels to most dangerous places as he goes 'missing' in Afghanistan

Mystery surrounds a man known for documenting his journeys to some of the world's most dangerous places after he went 'missing' in Afghanistan.

The last post which was confirmed to have been from Miles himself was sent on 2 March, after he was detained by the Taliban.

He wrote: "Yo guys, been taken by Afghan intelligence for taking like $1,000 out of Western Union (sus amount). No internet, no idea when this will send, everything is good but please excuse my lack of communication."

Followers of the danger tourist's page have since become increasingly concerned that he had died while in custody.

But while there have have since been posts from his accounts online confirming the traveler is being held under Taliban custody, none of them appear to have featured Miles directly, raising suspicion that he is not safe.

"He's treated very well, has several servants, loads of movies on his laptop, goes on picnics and has tea with the Taliban cabinet gov. He still loves Afghanistan."

They added: "He speaks like he's on holiday. He's sunbathing, playing TF2, writing his 2nd book, reading T.E Lawrence, exercising, has chocolates and cake etc.

"He’s made friends with the Taliban he’s with, he says he’s been invited to some weddings."

However, followers of the account were quick to point out that there had not been any actual confirmation that Miles was safe.

There haven't been any posts from him specifically and no images have been provided which could show evidence that he is okay.

Some also drew attention to the odd wording of the tweet, which seemed to be overwhelmingly positive despite not offering any hard proof that Miles is okay.

Despite fierce resistance from the Afghan army Taliban forces swept into power following the withdrawal of the coalition from the country.

Since taking power, the Taliban have enacted a series of highly socially conservative new laws, including banning women and girls from education and enforcing strict dress codes.
