ISLAMABAD: United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) provincial head in Quetta Dinesh Shrestha has emphasised upon complete law and order situation for smooth repatriation of Afghan refugees.
Talking to Voice Of America (VOA), he said there are more than 37,000 Afghan refugees who had left for Af
ghanistan last year and at
least 15,000 registered Afghan migrants had already left for Af
ghanistan.
He said the migrants are being repatriated following the steps taken by the Afghan government, international community and human rights organizations. Replying to a question, he said Afghan refugees migrated to areas of Af
ghanistan where peace has been restored, however, it is difficult to dispatch all Afghan refugees in a year because Iran is also sending Afghan migrants and in Af
ghanistan, there are number of homeless people due to
which difficulties of the people will further complicate.
He said the UNHCR is of the view that the Federal govt
should keep in mind difficulties of migrants as it is planning to send Afghan refugees back in their country and its modalities are being finalised.
