This week marks one year since Kabul was captured by the Taliban. 

The images of Taliban fighters in the Presidential Palace, holding AK47's behind the desk of former President Ashraf Ghani, were striking. 

Reza Hakimyar is a 25 year old software engineer in Wellington. He fled Afghanistan during the chaos and is now the founder and CEO of SpotTech in Aoteaora.  

Reza talks to Jesse about his experience.
