Khalil-ur-Rehman Haqqani, the Taliban's Minister of Refugees, called on Iran to refrain from confiscating the assets of Afghan refugees and to end their harassment.

He said on Sunday that a high-level Taliban delegation would hold talks with Iranian officials to investigate and resolve the problems of migrants.

The Taliban's Ministry of Refugees said in a statement on Sunday that Haqqani made the remarks during a meeting with Fazal Mohammad Haqqani, the Taliban's ambassador to Iran. In this meeting, the Taliban ambassador discussed the numerous problems of Afghan refugees in Iran with the Taliban minister.

Khalil-ur-Rehman Haqqani said that the Taliban wanted to solve the problems of refugees through dialogue with the Iranian government.

"We are trying to have a high-ranking delegation from the Islamic Emirate hold meetings with the Iranian government so that these problems can be seriously pursued and resolved," he added.

Emphasising on the dignified return of Afghans to the country, he called on the Iranian government to "refrain from confiscating the property of Afghan refugees and stop harassing them".

Iranian officials have said that the deportation of millions of Afghan refugees is one of the main plans of this country. The Islamic Republic has ignored the request of Taliban officials for voluntary return.

In recent months, thousands of Afghan refugees have been deported from Iran. Some Afghan refugees in Iran have been denied permission to work, rent a house, and even tour the city. Iranian officials have warned that employers who work for Afghan refugees will be punished.
