The Centre has revoked visas of Pakistani citizens after the Pahalgam attack

Supreme Court Halts Deportation of Family, Demands Citizenship Verification latest news: The Supreme Court has suspended temporarily the deportation of six family members to Pakistan until their citizenship claim is established.

The family, residing in Kashmir, was to be deported following the Pahalgam terror attack that left 26 dead. Their sons are employed in Bengaluru. The court ordered the authorities to verify their identity documents, such as passports, Aadhaar cards, and PAN cards, before any decision is made.

Noting the delicate nature of the matter, the court permitted the family to file a case before the Jammu and Kashmir High Court if they are not satisfied with the verification exercise.

Their lawyer accused them of possessing legitimate Indian documents but being taken to the Wagah border under duress for deportation. The court appealed to authorities to move with speed while observing fairness.

In the meanwhile, the Centre has revoked visas of Pakistani citizens after the Pahalgam attack, subject to certain exceptions under the government order. The case raises questions about identity verification and legal rights of people caught in a messy situation.
