June 21, 2016


FAISALABAD: Intelligence agencies have busted an alleged Afghan refugee serving as a doctor in Allied Hospital while investigations are underway to identify many others revealed to be appointed at government posts.

Reportedly, refugees hailing from Afghanistan acquired fake identity cards from different centres in Dera Ismail Khan and also got themselves family numbers allotted by the National Database and Registration Authority. According to the report, the doctor studied at Punjab Medical College and got a job in the Allied Hospital, allegedly using fake identity details. He married a lady doctor of Afghanistan descent. The Faisalabad Capital Police Officer has been directed by higher-ups to launch an inquiry into the issue.

According to statistics of United Nations body on refugees, over 1.5 million Afghan refugees are residing in Pakistan who have not only built permanent residences but have also strengthened their sources of livelihood as well. Thousands of Afghans cross border and enter Pakistan through Torkham everyday which result in several terror attacks in Pakistan. Pakistan Army, last week had to confront Afghanistan’s unjustified aggression at Torkham when it started constructing gate some 37 metres within its territory to keep a check on the movement.–INP

If this is true, we have failed on many fronts. First the ID card scam and now this revelation. These people have infiltrated every space of the society. This is unacceptable.

This is the main problem: internal failures! Woe is Pakistan!

Pakistanis must be made aware of these risks. Pakistanis must be taught how to differentiate Afghans from Pakistanis: accents, dress etc. A full program must be established as the officials seem not to care as long as they get their bribe money.
