Government admits inability to bring back Pakistani children from Gulf states

July 20, 2005

ISLAMABAD, July 20 2005: The government on July 19 admitted its inability in bringing back Pakistani children being used as camel jockeys and stranded in the Gulf states, but played down their number by putting the figure at only 1,000 as against 7,000 reported a few days ago.

At a Senate Standing Committee on Labour and Manpower meeting here, Overseas Pakistanis Foundation (OPF) said that it could be able to bring back only 200 out of thousands of children from the Gulf states ever since the matter was brought in the spotlight by media reports a year back.
