700 illegal Pakistani immigrants in Turkish prisons
2008-08-01
More than 700 Pakistanis are imprisoned in various Turkish jails for illegal entry into the country, Pakistan's Ambassador to Turkey Iftikhar Hussain Shah said on Thursday. "We are making arrangements for their early return to Pakistan," he told BBC Radio. He said almost 60 to 70 Pakistani immigrants were being intercepted at the Iran-Turkey border weekly. Shah underlined the need for taking action against people involved in human trafficking. Commenting on a recent report about the recovery of 13 bodies of illegal Pakistani immigrants near Istanbul, he said that according to embassy reports two of the deceased were Pakistani nationals and their relatives had been contacted.

#2  I have spoken to Pakis in Turkey. In all cases, their final destinations were: UK and US. And most make it.

Foreign muslims hate us, but they prefer to hate us from close range.
