Balochistan's Minister of Information, Jan Achakzai, has clarified that any foreign individual who remains in the country unlawfully without proper documentation, including Iranians and others - not just Afghan nationals - will be repatriated within the allotted time frame, which is before 1 November, Pakistani Media reported.
"This is the final decision regarding the deportation of all illegal foreign nationals," Achakzai said at a press conference on Wednesday.
The Balochistani minister insisted that Pakistan aims to ensure that illegal migrants secure a dignified departure to their respective country by 31 October.

illegal immigration, according to Achakzai, will be carried out in compliance with national and United Nations (UN) legislation.
