But he still has citizenship, right? In Pakistan? They already know he's not who they thought he was, so what argument/law could they possibly use to not let him back into the country?
- bayesian_horse 7y agoI don't know the details, but I could imagine they would prefer to not know that he is a Pakistani citizen. In that part of the world, citizenship and identity can be a messy subject. None of those countries is ethnically or linguistically homogeneous, not all of them can reliably track all citizens if they lost their papers. And I can imagine he wouldn't be a "gift" for the Pakistani government itself, considering political implications.
- beerandt 7y agoThe government of Pakistan were the "kidnappers" that originally turned him over to the US. (He leaves that part out of his story.) They don't want him, and he was previously expelled from Saudi Arabia. I don't know what other options he might have.
