His children are welcome to visit Pakistan on their NICOP Cards as Pakistani citizens for which no visa is required. However they will fully comply with the laws of Pakistan… https://t.co/MiyGUshcQW
Responding to Jemima Goldsmith, the information minister said Khan’s sons could travel to Pakistan on their NICOP cards as Pakistani citizens and would not require visas.
He added that during their stay they would remain bound by the laws of Pakistan.
It is pertinent to note that Jemima Goldsmith had recently appealed to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif for permission for her two sons to visit their father in Pakistan.
She had said that visa applications submitted in January had not been processed even after 60 days despite assurances of timely approval.
