Afghan consulate officials violate diplomatic norms in Peshawar


Afghan Consulate officials demonstrated extreme indecency and gross violation of diplomatic norms at a ceremony in Peshawar today.

Officials of the Afghan Consulate were invited by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur to the Rahmat-ul-lil-Aalameen Conference in Peshawar.

Acting Afghan Consul General Mohibullah Shakir remained seated during Pakistan’s national anthem, blatantly disregarding diplomatic protocol and shamelessly sitting in his seat.

By not respecting the national anthem, Mohibullah Shakir declared that he has no respect for Pakistan and the Pakistani nation.

Meanwhile, the credentials of Afghan official Mohibullah Shakir, who disrespected the national anthem in Peshawar today, are not complete.

The sources have confirmed that Mohibullah Shakir neither has an Afghan passport nor any other document.

The sources further said that he and his family returned to Afghanistan after getting financial assistance and ration in 2015 on POR Card.

The POR Cards are expired since long and
all Afghan nationals including Mohibullah Shakir are staying illegally in Pakistan because the Interior Ministry has not given any extension.
