very much for joining us your collection which represents the greatest drug related threat to pakistan security shafik in three a country or poppy cultivation within it we heard the poppy free status in two thousand and one. here in syria poppy free nest some of the regions and you know according for security pretty because of the ongoing. troubles in the tribal area. the growth in pakistan is at best seventeen hundred dollars and if you are below one dollar per you are probably free and only recently we have destroyed some of the poppy growth in our area and imports have a whore problem but here we have a lot of. free so the biggest trade for them is this trafficking the trafficking record to do so far as the group is there are no understand and so

far as the market is there in the rest of the partial or what's your organization to tackle these problems tackle trafficking we have a long border with i want to stand or your long border with iran almost a thousand kilometers we have. great ports we're working on all these places marked at strategic island. and the caesars or the government of august on the assistance of other law enforcement is the season in if they continue to be in the top three in the world we are doing our best that we can do cooperating internationally international season is only this year out of order and you can without an easy go for the passion old it was thirteen thousand feet in canada fifteen point eight tons of acidic and i buried in the grave and for the places we're doing our best for different things we can do it i think

a fall from it now and particularly if it's triggered mase and not even grew curtailed growth in a wanted and the demand in other countries does not produce. how is the drug trafficking into pakistan how is he didn't. oh it's hidden the save a drug barons operate the save all of the word it goes to tyson and central asian republics it goes from here on it goes through others and sources and we happen to be one of the tribe it only goes country it goes to pakistan also the wild turkey thirty five percent flow from pakistan they'd use all the means whether it's the old man his men back. crossing into. to our western regions and take it on the board and in way is that they did all six it's a water which is continuously going on they would out there for a few days then change to the next then to the next so there are medications on the

other side which is doing it is very smart very as i and very well informed and we continue to fight that we continue to fight that. and it's an ongoing war which is going on makes us diplomatic cables points to corruption involved controls between afghanistan and pakistan through which drugs. what's being done to tackle cross corruption cross border corruption different ask this question specifically to pox the what's happening in mexico in america what's happening in pakistan in that place it's common all the world people are the same they have same requirements the same problem there's the impressions so there's nothing special is going on in pakistan in a less than squander and in any case presently on our own border we are not deployed because of the ongoing militancy there so rather than you appeared on the exact borders but on the second live got there and doing the best that we can but

i think it is an exception this question particularly coming for pakistan is common the world over so there is a corruption yes there is and very does not and where it is not is there is a place where there is no corruption it's not possible to do. that is the question you should ask me is it possible to deal with it so let me tell you the world is not bring adequate to do what needs to be done people are just happy with conferences awareness campaigns because it is the easier part of the thing done you have been talking about it all over the world in all the conferences if you were to hit this menace it is the same thing as said a thief to catch a thief you have to cultivate informants and adequately pay them and this thing will go down or be hit hard that is what we are doing and the support that comes from the international community is the countries which are destined for this drug are feeling the heat of it they must do things more emphatically and in in

quantifiable numbers which is not happening at all so it sounds a bit like you are blaming the international community for not doing enough to help thank you very very positively and very straight i am blaming the international community not for doing enough if unity she had been there for about fifty years the question is has introduced a drug it hasn't in the united states of america is there in a while islam for the last almost seventy deal with so much of forces as they do to use their drugs production there it has not so what can pakistan alone do on the supply how are you cut right and we have kind of stun guns of understand we have adequate adequate not only my choice of the best we have very good cooperation with them and frequently we have the results coming to us resist willing to them we are on the telly this is where we keep sharing with them and some of the major

operations have been conducted with drugs have been seized and some of the high value targets they want for going to court because of our interaction with are not clean saw there between the drug trade and terrorist organizations working inside and outside pakistan how do you think total of one. money that is. generated by of opium let's go through the father is about four hundred million dollars by the time this leaves the one borders and the u.k. in his hand many times it generates run billion dollars and by the time it reaches its destination according to google the niner for not the latest because in that it has already escalated it generated sixty five billion times so what are we talking what are we talking about who is making the most of the money yes part of the money must be going to the organisation which i admit it and there is no doubt on this part snookered decides. why are we ignoring things which are happening and strewed

. why are we not talking about sixty four billion dollars which is made outside the border the longest one and this is two thousand and nine it's fast hundred and fifty billion dollars rich opium turns into liquid cash for many people who change hands by the bankrupt reaches far east middle eastern europe the punishment for those involved and drop trades all drug production pakistani have capital punishment also we have exhibited one man also if he was hanged to death last year before that and last year look people have been given this sentence is still in the process and the conviction rate of the people there in pakistan is about eighty seven percent the least and you can compare it with any other country if they exactly would the drug traffickers there are three. hundred people if you get you to seven are convicted. and this i think is

a very high figure and it only happened because of your special courts we do not and you got people who did all the reports that special force rich the governor of boston had made for this so the intent and first on a pox on a stick and other any c.d.'s and what suits you just three men who was executed in pakistan do you know what he was doing. used to be a hater and. and and friends would have done it. and then it was then they were killed and it was stitched into the stomach and credit for this whole operation from the point of abduction killing all the infant and getting was done in this because after the body would start decay and that is how he was taking the people and taking a hit he used to have got in france. five three months four months.

kill them. and then going into the stomach state you're going to get. a life imprisonment of all ordered one hundred of them are going for life imprisonment oh fifteen twenty years since another one hundred one hundred of them. present thought of when i see the seven percent that weighing in over it is. a degree of punishment depending on the prey the seriousness of the crime and the value system anybody in a post saw you have no problem on there because you put in just this this drug people dislike this drug and people support us and our work that you're doing. a few years still in the last section of the site you transform it into this and they continue to do it and what they would prefer to do are. getting away from their need to deal once because nobody supports them as you know for the first

time in history a russian diplomat has had in the un office on drugs and crime what difference will his appointment make to the war on afghan drugs. i misplaced referred it off twice already claimed that he came to pakistan on the his first visit in during the trial where he should be with was the conference which was held in pakistan we just met him in unity you see also a very fine gentleman and. the feeling that one gets met him and he wants to do something it's a very who did indicate in and i'm sure he'll make a difference because he is looking for alternative measures that can possibly be employed to do and if you are there it's i wish him the best of luck and full support from pakistan made zero thank you very much for the interview thank you so much.
