Zan News: On Wednesday (January 8), the Human Rights Activists Union issued a statement expressing serious concern over the widespread detention of Afghan migrants and refugees in Pakistan, condemning these actions.

The statement reads: "Afghan refugees in Pakistan are victims of the oppression and violence of the Taliban terrorist group. Their illegal detention and mistreatment violate Islamic principles, international laws, and Pakistan’s humanitarian commitments."

The union described this situation as alarming and called for the immediate cessation of arrests and the unconditional release of all detainees. It urged the Pakistani government to respect the human dignity of refugees and ensure that such inhumane behavior is not repeated.

The statement also referenced reports indicating that some detainees were released after paying bribes or due to personal connections. The union labeled these actions as violations of Pakistan’s internal laws and principles of justice and human rights, emphasizing the need to address administrative shortcomings and combat corruption.

The union warned that the continuation of such practices could severely harm relations between the people of Afghanistan and Pakistan. It stated: "We urge Pakistani authorities to guarantee justice and transparency instead of fostering structural corruption and to adhere to their international obligations. Such behaviors undermine claims of arresting individuals without legal documentation."

The statement also highlighted the importance of collaboration between Afghanistan and Pakistan in combating terrorism and fostering regional stability. The union expressed its readiness to play a role in the fight against terrorist groups and urged Pakistan to strengthen relations based on mutual respect and friendly cooperation.

In conclusion, the Human Rights Activists Union reaffirmed its commitment to defending the rights and dignity of Afghan refugees worldwide, stating that if detentions persist, it will use all media platforms to pursue the issue.
