Kiwi still in Pakistan

New Zealand authorities have yet to meet Kiwi Mark Taylor face-to-face, a month after his capture in Pakistan.

Mr Taylor, 35, was detained by Pakistani security forces on February 11 after trying to enter a tribal region on the Afghan border, identified as a Taleban and al Qaeda stronghold, without permission.

A spokesman for Foreign Minister Murray McCully said New Zealand's embassy in Tehran had established that Mr Taylor was in good health but had not yet been allowed to meet him.
