Pakistan Post. 2 October 2002. Translated from Urdu by Rehan Ansari. Oman, Saudi Arabia, Muscat and United Arab Emirates deported 2000 Pakistanis. Upon their arrival in Pakistan, all were interviewed by FBI agents and released without further charges. Oman and Muscat deported 1,100 Pakistanis living there without legal status. Combined with those deported from Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates, the figure climbs to almost 2000 Pakistanis sent back to Pakistan from the Arabian peninsula. Almost all of these Pakistanis made their way to the various states of the Arabian peninsula with the help of agents who charge them between $200 to $500 each. They are smuggled across the arid Baluchistan region of Pakistan, and then by sea. Most of the people deported have been in detention for many months in these various countries. For the purposes of deportation Pakistani consulates issued "Emergency Passports," to the deportees, who were then put on boats to Karachi. Overwhelming anecdotal evidence indicates that most of those deported from the Arabian peninsula left voluntarily, as is the case in the United States as well.
