KP orders deportation of over two thousand Afghan refugees
 [Dawn] The provincial government of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa... formerly NWFP, still Terrorism Central... (KP) on Friday cancelled registrations of more than two thousand Afghan refugees holding fake identity cards and issued orders to deport them back to their home country, DawnNews reported. Moreover, the KP government has sought recommendations from different institutions on whether the refugees' assets should be sealed or confiscated. The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) also set to sit in solemn silence in a dull, dark dock, in a pestilential prison with a life-long lock four officials of National Database and Registration Authority (Nadra) and the immigration and passports office who were allegedly involved in issuing fake identity cards and passports to the illegal residents. The investigations reports have been submitted to Ministry of Interior. Earlier in February, a list of 185 Afghan refugees working for different institutions of the Afghan government had been earlier sent by the FATA Secretariat and the KP government to the interior and foreign ministries, after which it was decided that the refugees should be deported from the country. Following the orders, notices had been issued to the refugees ordering them to leave the country within a month. Posted by: Fred 2012-03-24 |
