Over 19,000 Afghan Immigrants Returned To Afghanistan Through Torkham Border, Says Pak

Nov 3, 2023, 10:23 GMT+0

The Commissionerate for Afghan Refugees in Pakistan announced that on Thursday, 19,320 people returned to Afghanistan from the Torkham crossing.

The organisation added that these immigrants returned to their country "voluntarily".

According to Pakistani officials, these immigrants included 1,453 families.

The Pakistani government had given immigrants without legal documentation a deadline until November 1 to leave the country.

Following the expiration of this deadline, Pakistan has started the process of arresting "illegal" immigrants.

According to Pakistani officials, about 1.7 million Afghan individuals are included among these immigrants.

Human rights organisations have expressed concern over the decision of the expulsion of Afghan refugees by Pakistan.
