As a crackdown on illegal foreigners continues in Pakistan, the government plans to send back registered migrants as well after deporting the undocumented settlers, Balochistan’s caretaker Minister for Information Jan Achakzai said on Thursday.

“So far, 80,000 immigrants from Balochistan have left Pakistan. After this, [we] will send back the registered refugees as well,” Achakzai said while addressing a press conference in Karachi.

The minister said that the foreigners living in Pakistan should have the authentic documents. Hundreds of thousands of foreigners have got fake identification cards, he added.

“We have not taken the responsibility of the illegal residents. The crackdown on the illegal migrants will continue,” Achakzai said, while warning the government in Afghanistan against giving harsh statements. “Pakistan knows how to crush all kinds of terrorism.”

The minister said that Pakistan’s relations with Afghanistan have nosedived recently, but at the same time he noted that the deterioration in the relationship came as the nation was picking up the dead bodies.

Referring to an intelligence-based operation in the Sambaza area of Balochistan’s Zhob district on October 31, in which six terrorists were killed, he said all of them were Afghans. He also mentioned the trading of illegal American arms in Afghanistan’s black market as a “national security threat”, saying that the same illegal arms were also used in the attack on the PAF base in Mianwali.

He said that the handful of terrorists present in the Afghan sanctuaries are using US arms against our people. Coming down hard on the Afghan government, Achakzai said that all of the sanctuaries and terrorist training centres are operating under the Afghan authorities’ noses.

“When you talk on the rhetoric level that our soil is not being used. It is a fact that Afghan soil is being used against us,” he asserted.
