ISLAMABAD: In a park in Islamabad, authorities detained 539 Afghan nationals living illegally in the country.
According to sources, the Islamabad police carried out an operation against undocumented Afghan residents, who are now set to be transferred from Haji Camp to the Afghanistan border.
Sources reported that 438 undocumented Afghans were taken into custody from the Argentina Park area under the jurisdiction of the Aabpara Police Station.
These individuals had been living in tents in a section of the park for several months.
A large police contingent participated in the operation.
According to sources, the Afghan nationals were unable to provide any valid visas or documentation, which led to their detention.
The undocumented Afghans will be moved from Haji Camp to the border with Afghanistan.
It is worth mentioning that Pakistan has had a clear stance about the Afghan nationals residing illegally in Pakistan.
Pakistan aims a peaceful and early repatriation of all such Afghan nationals who have been residing in Pakistan for the past five decades.
Such people are advised to go back to their country now and play their role for the development and the stability of Afghanistan.
Pakistan has to keep the matters of law-and-order and national security in KP and Balochistan in view.
Once the Afghan national return to their country, Pakistan will look forward to carry out the development infrastructure, employment, health and education in the remote areas of KP and Balochistan.
Ironically, despite Pakistan’ hospitality, the Afghan nationals have been involved in the acts of militancy, smuggling, drugs-supply, land-grabbing and other serious crimes causing threats to the law-and-order and the national security.
Furthermore, instead of acknowledging Pakistan’s sacrifice of decades, the Afghan government has been backing and supporting the Indian-sponsored militancy in the KP and Balochistan.
The militants-attacks have been launched on the security forces, innocent civilians and the development infrastructure not only in KP and Balochistan but also in Karachi and Punjab areas.
The militant groups like TTP, BLA, Majeed Brigade, Daish and many others have been launching attacks on the Pakistani territory for the past four decades.
Thousands of innocent people have been brutally killed in those militant-attacks.
Such militants moved backed and supported by Afghanistan are not a fair return of Pakistan’s sacrifices and goodwill.
