Thus, the MoFA Zimbabwe has asked Paksitan to immediately deport the concerned individual," the sources said.The matter came to light following the arrest of three Pakists -- one male and two females -- in Beitbridge in October-November 2019. They revealed the link to the embassy staffer during questioning. It was reported that a Pakist-origin guy tipped off the authorities about the racket run by Ahmed.Mian Sohail Qaiser, a Businessman settled in Zimbabwe had accused Harare-based Pak embassy staffers of running a human trafficking racket to smuggle nationals into South Africa, according to a report in Zimbabwe's The Standard newspaper.The arrest sparked the tension between Harare and Islamabad, said a newspaper 'The Standard report'.The embassy of Pakistan in Harare has described it as a "delicate and complex situation" and is incensed that Harare is not doing enough to address its concerns."The delay in disposal of the matter is degenerating [sic]," the Pakist embassy wrote to Zimbabwe's director general in charge of legal and consular affairs in the Foreign Affairs Ministry and accused immigration officials of "misbehaving" by calling Pakist travellers "criminals" on December 19, 2019.( With inputs from ANI )
