More than 7,000 Afghan refugees who were deported from Pakistan have said their family members remain in the country, TOLO News reported. TOLO News is an Afghan news channel broadcasting from Kabul.

Deported refugees, including women and children, told TOLO News that they still have no information about the fate of their families in Pakistan. A deported refugee, Noor Mohammad, said: "My sons, who were memorizers of the Qur'an, were going out secretly. They took the students from religious schools and brought them to the border and expelled them."
