Cynthia D. Ritchie, a Pakistani based US journalist, have raised serious questions about Pakistan Origin Card being awarded to Foreign Nationals.

NADRA issued Pakistani POC to a Foreign National, a UAE citizen, AREF MOHAMED SALEH ALI ALZAROONI. However, this individual is a Foreign National with no Pakistani links - no Pakistani mother or Pakistani spouse.

UAE and Pakistan have no DUAL-NATIONALITY agreement. Therefore, Foreign Nationals with no Pakistani parent are only eligible for POC via spouse (certain conditions apply). If Foreign National have no Pakistani spouse, they are not eligible for POC.




Zarooni Money Exchange's license was revoked by UAE in 2016 after it's money laundering activities worth billions of dollars surfaced. Since about 2008, Altaf Khanani ran the network from the Al Zarooni Exchange in Dubai. Khanani was arrested in Panama in 2015 by US. There's also a related documentary called "A Billion Dollar Bust" released in 2018. It's sad that corrupt and criminal foreign nationals were given Pakistani ID cards to cause embarrassment worldwide.

Its a POC, not citizenship, even people with Pakistani spouses are issued these. I don't see the issue here, unless its proven he his mother is not Pakistani and he does not have or had a Pakistani spouse.

This is dangerous. Many Indians, Afghanis would have got these ID cards.
the afghan refugees who are living in Pakistan deserve Pak nationality because now they are third generation born and Living in Pakistan.And new afghan immigrants are risky maybe.

This is serious treason and it must bring some consequences against one to all involved in this treason, the government who did is is obviously responsible for this action, but the present government will be held if no action taken against this crime.

some people are misguiding to say POC can be issued to non Pakistani spouse of a Pakistan National this is totally wrong POC is Pakistan Origin Card and can be only issued to an overseas Pakistani with Dual nationality or Ex Pakistani who has surendered his nationality but still have roots is Pakistan and wishes to keep his property bank accounts and other assets and holder of this passport entitled to have visa free entry another card is NICOP that is National Identity for overseas Pakistanis this card is only for those Pakistanis who are working abroad or residents of other countries or students overseas
To obtain POC unlawfully is an offense

Just by writing in huge clown fonts doesn't make it right, takes one second to look it up

  • Not a citizen or national of India, Isreal and Taiwan.
  • Not a citizen or national of state or country not recognized by Pakistan; and
  • Not a citizen of any enemy country
