FIRs to be registered against deportees

The government has decided to take stringent action against citizens deported from foreign countries.

In a high-level meeting chaired by Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi on Saturday, it was resolved that FIRs will be registered against all deportees. In addition, their passports will be cancelled, and their names will be placed on the Passport Control List (PCL) for a period of five years.

To ensure effective implementation, a committee has been constituted under the chairmanship of Interior Secretary Khurram Agha that will review and strengthen the existing passport laws and regulations.
