Interior Minister Rehman Malik told the parliament on Thursday that name of Pakistan was removed from the international watch list in connection with human trafficking due to efforts of FIA.
Responding to queries during National Assembly session, he said that Pakistan was on the watch list but now, due to FIA efforts, human trafficking was discouraged.
On its role in addressing corruption, the minister said that so far FIA has recovered Rs 808 million lost in corruption.
He said the Transparency International was a small institution therefore its report was not final and it should be noted that corruption in Pakistan could never be measured on the same tools as that in Europe.
He added that number of police personnel was being enhanced as some people were recruited and more would be recruited.
He said law and order was improved in the tribal agency and decreasing the number of check posts in the area was under consideration.
He said further that 94 percent people were registered with NADRA and the remaining would be on the roll soon. About fake NIC of Afghans, he said that 90,000 such NIC were cancelled and action was being taken against the responsible officers.
Meanwhile, to the question regarding relief and rehabilitation in the flood-hit areas, he said that about 3 lac families or 60-70 lacs of people were affected and now only 300 were homeless who never wanted to return. He blamed NGOs for bribing them to not to return for their own interest.
This government, he said, faced natural calmities including flood of 2010, the situation in Swat, floods of 2011 and so on. “I say that this government was efficient enough in tackling the flood affected areas,” he said, adding that rehabilitation of such a large population was not an easy task.
The FIA only del with external trafficking and even then most of it's effort are against human smuggling, quite distinct from human trafficking.
what can we say about FIA, its proved that FIA is too included in this crime of trafficking !!
