Taliban Says Pakistan's Decision For The Afghan Immigrants Is "Unacceptable

Taliban slams Pakistan”s “threat” to deport undocumented Afghan immigrants. The Taliban spokesperson said the decision is “unacceptable”. Earlier, Pakistan”s caretaker government has set November 1 as a deadline for the undocumented immigrants to leave Pakistan.

According to Pakistan, the estimated number of Afghan immigrants in the country is 1.73 million. Pakistan”s decision was in the name of “security reasons”. Sarfraz Bugti, Pakistan”s Interior Minister alleged that out of 24 suicide bombing in the country this year, 14 were operated by Afghan citizens.

Pakistan came to such decision fter a meeting of Pakistan”s leaders from both sides, civil and military, adhering to maintaining the law and order of the country after two suicide bombing, which killed 57 people on Friday. According to report, Mr. Bugti accused Afghan citizens and Indian intelligence agency for the suicide bombing.

Taking to socia media platform X (formerly twitter), Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid declared the Pakistan”s “behaviour” as “unacceptable”. He said it is not Afghan citizens problem that Pakistan have security issues and as long as the Afghani Immigrants “voluntarily” leave Pakistan, “the country should tolerate them”.

The behavior of Pakistan against Afghan refugees is unacceptable. The Pakistani side should reconsider its plan. Afghan refugees are not involved in Pakistan's security problems. As long as they leave Pakistan voluntarily, that country should tolerate them.

The tolerance level between Pakistan and Taliban is dramatically deteriorating with the constants threats of militant attacks in the border lands. While Pakistan is already neck deep in troubles ranging from financial instability to political unrest, a caretaker government was handed power to “guide” the country through until another election, which is expected to be on roll soon. Taliban claims the unrest and security distress of Pakistan are “home grown”.

Meanwhile, military has gained some loopholes as the government faces an “unending” crisis and conflicts. The northern and eastern regions of the country that shares border with Taliban constantly get acquainted with militant threats from organisations of “Pakistan Taliban, ISIS and Baloch Separatists”, says report.
