Afghan amputee back on the road

Hashmatullah, 23, lost both his legs when he was six years old and stepped on a landmine in Afghanistan. His father died in the accident.

Hashmatullah is now the administrative manager of the Kabul Orthopaedic Organization (KOO), which was founded in 2004 to treat individuals injured by land mines or suffering from other physical disabilities.

Last year, Hashmatullah began driving a car by wearing one prosthetic leg and using a cane to press the gas and brakes. He says that driving has given him much more freedom.
