Chitral (Chitral Express): Several members of the same family from the Barawal area of Upper Dir have strongly urged the Government of Pakistan, the Chief Justice, the Army Chief and the Governor of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to take immediate notice of the alleged injustice against them and provide justice.
The affected people, including Laiq Bibi, Afghan Bibi, Nooruddin, Rahmatuddin, Rahim Dad and Aman Gul Bibi, said in a press release that they have been Pakistani citizens for generations and that their father has had an identity card since 1970. They said, “Our entire family is Pakistani; our properties and homes are in Pakistan (Barawal), and we have no land or property in Afghanistan. Despite this, efforts are being made to forcibly transfer us to Afghanistan, which is sheer injustice.”
Expressing their surprise, they asked, “How can one brother in the same family be Pakistani and another Afghan?”
They clarified that all their blood relatives are in Pakistan and that they are ready to provide every kind of assurance and state the facts before NADRA.
The family has appealed to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Army Chief General Asim Munir, the Chief Justice of Pakistan and Governor of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Faisal Karim Kundi, saying that they have all the legal documents and should therefore be protected from deportation from their own country and provided complete justice.
