| Source: NNI, Translated By Jihad Unspun A batch of hundred detained Pakistanis will be flown to Pakistan on Immigration and Naturalization (INS) chartered flight by end of this month. This was stated by Imran Ali, Second Secretary dealing with Consular Affairs at Pakistan Embassy. G'bye, boys! Take your jihad and don't come back! Speaking to NNI, Ali revealed that the Embassy is awarding $100 each from Community Welfare Fund so that the deportees have money with them after reaching Islamabad. He said, in previous flights quite many of deported expatriates were even without a cent and had faced difficulties in reaching their hometowns from Chaklala. And that's our problem because...? About the deportation procedures, Ali notified that in previous deportations by two flights various natives whose immigration cases were ceased and were to be deported showed anxiety to continue staying in jail instead of expulsion. About 10 of those with Embassy involvement managed to stay in jail in United States. "You can't sent me back to Pakistan! Those people are crazy!" "You're a Pak. What's that make you?" "Aw, c'mon! Keep me in jug instead! Please? I'd rather be in jug than in Peshawar!" Ali said all those unfortunate persons were actually ripped off by their attorneys, with assurance that they would manage to over turn the INS deportation court orders. He said most of them paid out their life savings from $10,000 to $15,000 and their plea cases were rejected by the INS. Many of the confined had to sell their watches to pay off their attorney's fee. "Gimme a buck for this Timex? I gotta pay my lawyer..." |
