ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has suspended readmission agreements with the western countries except United Kingdom because of its ‘blatant misuse’.
This was announced by Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan while addressing a news conference in Islamabad on Friday afternoon, Radio Pakistan reported.
He said under re-admission agreements, Pakistanis travelling illegally to any Western country were to be deported after proper verification. However, most of the countries were deporting them without verification by Pakistani authorities, and last year alone 90,000people were sent back to Pakistan, he added.
