 Around 70 Pakistanis landed at Islamabad Airport on Wednesday after being deported by the US.
Of them, 66 people were charged with overstaying and four for involvement in drug pushing. They flew back home in a special chartered plane from New York. Officials from the Pakistani embassy in Washington accompanied the deportees, many of who belong to Punjab. Officials of the US embassy in Islamabad were also present at the airport. The Anti-Narcotics Force took them into custody on arrival. The FIA Immigration department interrogated them. Many were freed, however, several are still in custody.
