Migrant postcards: 'I didn't want to join the Taliban'

Ali Khan, 23, from Pakistan, tells the BBC about his journey from his native country to Greece, via Iran and Turkey.

The boat crossing to Greece hit problems and the Greek authorities had to rescue all those on board after four hours at sea.

He left Pakistan, he says, because the Taliban wanted him to join their jihad.

''I didn't want to do that as I wanted peace,'' he says.
