PR No. 25 Zulfi Bukhari Helps Repatriate 28 Pakistani Drivers from Iraq Islamabad: March 5, 2019

Zulfikar Bukhari, Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Overseas Pakistanis & HRD, took notice of a video circulating on social media about drivers who were stuck in Iraq. The drivers were sent to Iraq one and a half month ago as part of the employment drive by an Overseas Employment Promoter. The employer in Iraq did not abide by the contract, denied them the opportunity to work and kept them in a camp. Zulfikar Bukhari directed the Director General, Bureau of Emigration & Overseas Employment and Community Welfare Attaché, Baghdad to do the needful for the repatriation of the Pakistani drivers. The efforts were put in and Iraqi authorities were taken onboard. As a result, the drivers were released and DG Bureau and Community Welfare Attaché arranged for their safe return to Pakistan. The cost of their return was paid by the Overseas Employment Promoter. In addition to that, the concerned Overseas Employment Promoter was directed to return the amount received from these drivers, which amounts to Rs. 300,000. The Overseas Employment Promoter paid first Installment of Rs. 100,000 on 4th March, 2019 at Bureau of Emigration & Overseas Employment, Islamabad. Rest of the amount will be paid to the drivers in two monthly installments of Rs. 100,000. *****
