The Islamic Emirate has denounced Pakistan's move to resume deportations of Afghan migrants, citing violations of international agreements.

The decision by the Government of Pakistan has sparked widespread reactions, with calls for reconsideration echoing from various quarters.

Zabihullah Mujahid, spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate, declared the deportation of migrants as illegal and against global norms, urging Pakistan to rethink its decision. Mujahid emphasized the challenges already faced by the people of Afghanistan, particularly migrants, and urged against further hardships.

Simultaneously, Amnesty International has expressed deep concern over the deportation of Afghan migrants by Pakistan, calling for an immediate halt to the process. The organization highlighted the plight of Afghan refugees, including holders of the Afghan Citizen Card (ACC), and criticized Pakistan's continued deportations.

According to advocacy groups supporting Afghan migrants in Pakistan, the government has adopted stringent policies towards ACC holders, causing distress among documented migrants.

Mir Ahmad Raouf, head of the Afghan Migrants Council in Pakistan, revealed that migrants who received documentation before August 15, 2001, are facing deportation as per the government's decision.

Atiqullah, a member of organizations defending Afghan migrants in Pakistan, raised alarm over the forced deportations, questioning the silence of the Afghan government on the matter.

The decision to deport Afghan migrants was initially implemented by Pakistan in November last year, leading to strained relations between Kabul and Islamabad. The impending second phase of deportations, slated to commence in less than a month, adds to the growing tensions surrounding the issue. (ILKHA)
