Foreigners in madrassas won’t be deported: Shujaat
2005-08-01
Pakistan Muslim League (PML) President Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain said on Sunday no action would be taken against seminary students in Pakistan and foreign seminary students would not be deported. “I will meet President Pervez Musharraf and Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz and will request them to allow foreign students to complete their education in Pakistan,” he added.
"They will, of course, do as I ask..."
Registration of seminaries was not only a problem for the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal, but for the whole nation, he said, adding that it was the PML government’s policy to allow foreign students to study in Pakistan.
"I thought it was one of our better ideas..."
Hundreds of foreign students in Pakistan’s Islamic seminaries were on Sunday preparing to go home in line with an expulsion order that came amid a crackdown on militants after the deadly London bombings.
