Deported Pakistani student returns home
Islamabad, Oct 13 : Another Pakistani student deported from Britain arrived at the Benazir International Airport here on Tuesday. Muhammad Ramadan, along with 10 other Pakistani students, was arrested by the British police on terror charges.
Nine of the arrested students were deported in April and the other in May.
Talking to the media at the airport, he said neither the Pakistani government nor Pakistan's High Commissioner to Britain Wajid Shamsul Hassan had done anything for the release of the arrested students.
Ramadan belongs to Waziristan in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) along the border with Afghanistan. He left Pakistan some two years ago to get an MBA degree from Britain but was arrested along with 10 other students some eight months ago on terror charges, Online news agency reported.
Apart from being humiliated, "we were kept in a jail where high-profile terrorists and criminals are languishing", he said.
"We had two options - either to be deported or remain in jail," he said, adding: "The British police have also failed to show any evidence with regard to our involvement in terrorism." (IANS)
