CHAGAI: Iranian border officials on Saturday deported another 59 Pakistani nationals who had illegally entered in the country.

Pakistan’s border authorities said that citizens deported from Iran have been handed over to the Federal Investigation Agency’s anti-human trafficking cell for investigation.

“The deportees were intending to illegally emigrate to European countries via Iran,” border officials said.

People from Pakistan used to cross into Iran hoping to illegally emigrate to Europe in search of greener pastures.
