ISLAMABAD, (MILLAT/APP): Voluntary repatriation of Afghan
refugees will resume from the 3rd of next month.
A spokesman of the UNHCR told Radio Pakistan that the
process was temporarily suspended in November last year due to
winter season.
A repatriation center has been opened at Chamkani near
Peshawar to register refugees willing to go back to Afghanistan.
The UNHCR is providing four hundred dollar to each returning
refugee besides food and other basic items.
The spokesman said three hundred and eighty thousand
registered Afghan refugees were repatriated to Afghanistan last
year.
