Provincial Governor Zahir Wadat said the people from Mirza Olang village had arrived in Sar-e Pul, the main town of the province, although some others were still with the Taliban.
After days of waiting for additional troops to arrive, security forces would soon begin a clearance operation to retake the village, he said.
The village was overrun at the weekend, with as many as 50 local people and militia members killed.
