Photographer Steve McCurry Comes To The Rescue Of The Afghan Girl After Her Arrest In Pakistan

[Basel]

Who are you to decide that? BDW I am all for supporting the people being mistreated in your country but I think they will live a better life in Europe


10 million Afghans? Few thousands that are residing in Pakistan are happily moving back to Afghanistan. At least, there they won't be arrested or mistreated. This Afghan girl who is so popular around the world and who has been the face of refugee was arrested by Pakistani authority and this act puts Pakistan in a very bad light. I condemn it.

Your post shows you have not seen Afghan living in Pakistan and talking big, just visit Sohrab Goat Karachi area to see how many are here and its just one of many areas in Karachi where Afghans live.

Might be. But I am just saying that recent news coming about the forced exit of Afghans and the arrest of this popular girl, who bdw is called 'Monalisa of Afghanistan', is not throwing a good light on Pakistan's image. Bad memories stick better than good.

Ok. I agree you have done very good deeds but please don't tarnish your image by arresting helpless widows. I agree she has done forgery but she could have been simply deported.
More than Pakistan, it is her photographer to be blamed who earned at her expense and then left her to rot.

umm, she will be deported eventually

 

[Margarita]

umm, she will be deported eventually

I hope it is sooner than later. I am assuming she is locked up in some prison. Hope she gets asylum in Europe and her photographer should make sure of that.

Those who wants to take afghan refugees from Pak are welcome to take them away as we are keeping them cuz of western mistreatment in afghanistan..
Those who wants to be champion of refugees sud see there more Pakistan mistreated in Pak than afghani..
In 5 years there more afghani get killed than anywhere els..
People needs to look at the life of refugees in europe them Pak.. Pak accepted 5 million of them gave them nationality shelter security and here goes some champion trying to safe one girl and beating drum like he is doing some thing good for afghani..

This incident exposes three very blunt thruths.

1. Pakistan is a sham "Islamic Republic".
2. "Pakistan ka matlab kya, La Illaha Illallah" was and is a fraud.
3. Afganistan is far from stable as can be seen in Muslim refugees preferring to stay in Pakistan despite problems with the law.

@Margarita Is that a Pakistan soldier you have as your DP? If so, why?

Kindly take your Monalisa of Afghanistan where she belongs that is Afghanistan, we don't need illegal refugees, who are huge burden on our economy and big support to crimes and Terrorism in Pakistan.

People from outside Pakistan talk big in support of Afghan but there countries are not ready to bear what Pakistan have gone through since more then 30 years without any foreign support. Don't lecture us, if you are champion of humanity then kindly take all Afghan refugees to your country and bear them for more then 30 year without foreign help, then We will ask your views about them.

Do you feel the same for millions of illegals from India in Karachi? Or are they 'halal Muslims'? And don't pull the 'anti-Pakistan' card. We all know millions of illegal Indian refugees in Karachi mask RAW operatives who are hidden by MQM etc. They are far greater threat to Pakistan than this poor Muslim lady.

I do not want to make this India Vs Pak thread but please kindly browse some videos on Youtube to see how Tibet refugees have been living in India and how respectfully they are treated. there is an entire city called Dharamshala, especially for these Tibetan refugees

This entire city of Dharamshala is occupied by Tibetan refugees

But no one mistreats them, no one arrested, no is forced to forge documents, no one discriminates against them or call them outsiders. They lead a respectful life in India just like any other refugee in any part of the world should do.

Pakistan is doing not big deed by keeping refugees, it is like a hygiene factor. Once having accepted refugees, they should be treated with respect.

@Margarita Is that a Pakistan soldier you have as your DP? If so, why?

I find him cute.

 

[Sher-e-India]

Pakistani members here, is Kaptaan a Pashtun? He's feeling lot of "Pashtun brotherhood" for Afghan refugees lol

 

[Indus Pakistan]

I find his cute.

You don't have any 'cute' in million man Indian army? No? Kinda insulting to that soldier to have his enemies flag underneath his DP.

And I find it annoying how Pakistan has ocean of illegals from India, Bangladesh, Burma yet hardly any sound is made. We have millions living in Karachi and we have it on record that Indian government has funded MQM. That party despite this is ruling in Karachi because the millions there continue to support it. Billions of dollars are remitted to India to their brethren in India. India is a existential threat to Pakistan. Indian Muslims are Indian's and serve in Indian Army, Indian government and are loyal citizens of India. They talk bad of Pakistan as much as rest of India.

Yet not a sound comes out of anybody about this dichotomy because we are told they are Muslims. Well this lady is also a Muslim. She has suffered since childhood. Her parents were killed by Russians. She was traumatized in war by the Soviet Russians. Every bleeding heart cries for that Aafia Siddiqui who was born in luxury. Both are Muslim. Why is one being ( arrested and punished because the poor woman has had unfortunate circuumstances forced on her?

Is it because Afia is from rich Karachi family where the community has control over the media in Pakistan? Does Islam and Muslim only extend to certain groups?

Please mind your own business. Don't be his spokesperson.

This is lame reason india kept tibet cuz india support them to have their own nation mostly who lives in dharma city are against china its there political move.
When compare to afghan refugees in pak are puerly on humanitarian basics but enough is enough they have been support of TTP. Works for drug loards goes to india or afghan get trained and kill Pakistanies.. any one wants to keep them they are welcome to give their home.. we are done.

 

[Kabira]

Didn't Pakistan already arrest her some years back? Why this drama all over again?

You see things with biased lens, hence will not be able to understand my point. Keep believing highlighted points and keep justifying the atrocities you people are doing on Afghan refugees.
