鈥楢fghan Girl鈥 to be deported
Print Edition
A Pakistani judge yesterday ordered the deportation of Sharbat Gula, the green-eyed “Afghan Girl” whose 1985 photo in “National Geographic” became a symbol of her country’s wars, after finding her guilty of illegally obtaining a Pakistani identity card.
Gula, now in her 40s, was also sentenced to 15 days in jail and fined almost US$1,000.
She had been living in the northwestern Pakistani city of Peshawar for years with her late husband and children.
Gula is likely to be freed in three days, as she has already spent more than 10 days in prison since her arrest last week, said Afghan consulate official Abdul Hameed Jalili.
“On the coming Monday, she will be deported,” Jalili said. “The government and the people of Afghanistan await Sharbat Gula with great emotion, and will welcome her very warmly.”
