They might release them on Monday:
Two ailing South Korean hostages held by the Taliban are to be freed by Monday morning, the governor of the Afghan province where they were abducted said on Sunday.
"The Taliban are releasing two sick female hostages as a gesture of good faith. They'll be here by tomorrow morning in Ghazni (city)," provincial governor Merajuddin Pattan said.
"The Taliban promised to release two of the hostages, but they did not mention what time."
Earlier, a spokesman for the rebel group said the women would be freed soon.
