Pakistan diplomat on personal visit to US denied entry, deported
PTC News Desk: In a major embarrassment, Pakistan diplomat was left red faced after he was denied entry into the United States despite having a valid visa and necessary documents.
KK Wagan, the Pakistani ambassador to Turkmenistan was stopped by the US immigration on his arrival in Los Angeles and deported. According to the reports, Wagan, a seasoned diplomat, was on a personal trip to Los Angeles having a valid US visa and other travel documents. On his arrival, US authorities flagged concerns over diplomatic protocol citing 'controversial visa references'. However specific concerns have not been ascertained yet.
He was then asked to return from where he had arrived in Los Angeles.
Following the incident, Wagon is likely to be summoned to Islamabad to give an explanation over the incident.
The latest incident comes amid reports that US President Donald Trump would soon be imposing a travel ban on the country eventually stopping entry of Pakistanis into the US.
