QUETTA, Dec 20: Afghan authorities released 10 Pakistanis, including five levies men, on Wednesday, a day after detaining them for crossing into Afghanistan by mistake. Qila Saifullah district administration sources said Afghan officials in Badini border area had responded positively to Pakistani officials’ request for the men’s release as they had mistakenly crossed the border.
AP adds: Tribal elders and government officials received the men from Afghan officials at Badini border crossing, said an official.
The men were arrested late on Tuesday in a mountainous region where the border was not demarcated, said Abdul Raziq Bugti, spokesman for the Balochistan government.
