Pakistan deports two Dutch terrorist suspects
Two Dutch nationals arrested in Pakistan in June on suspicion of involvement in terrorism are to be deported this week, the Dutch foreign affairs ministry has told news agency Novum.
The two are to be deported following high-level diplomatic pressure and on the assurances that the Netherlands will arrest the men, Novum said.
The two were arrested after crossing the border without visas and are suspected of trying to link up with terror network Al-Qaida.
