OTTAWA—Former Afghanistan hostage Caitlan Coleman lied this week when she testified in her estranged husband’s criminal trial she got approval from her lawyers to talk the media, defence lawyer Lawrence Greenspon said in court Thursday.
Coleman’s husband Joshua Boyle, 35, faces 19 charges, including sexual assault, assault, and unlawful confinement, for acts he allegedly committed after the couple was freed following five years as hostages of Taliban-linked extremists in Afghanistan.
