No deadline for foreign students' repatriation
2005-08-14
If there's no deadline, then there aren't any teeth in the order. That's fairly typical for Pakland. I wonder how many of the "students" will still be there in six months? And how many will be "lost track of"?
KARACHI: The government has set no deadline for expelling foreign seminary students as a host of logistics involved in the repatriation process still need to be worked out, Sindh Home Secretary Ghulam Mohtaram told reporters on Saturday. "We have to see if their home countries will accept them back," he said. The provincial government is preparing to send home 648 foreign students studying in religious schools in Sindh, Mohtaram said. "There are some 648 foreign students studying in madrasas in the province, of which 591 are in Karachi," the home secretary said. "The government has taken a policy decision on foreign students in madrasas. They will be sent back as soon as possible."

#2  "We have to see if their home countries will accept them back,"
So the right to deport them is based on whether or not they will be accepted back?
sigh, whose decision is it anyway.....

I don't understand this statement.
