Awais added that proper documents of his car were with him, but even then the officials stopped him. The customs Staff also demanded bribe and told him that he is not permitted to drive through Punjab. Despite showing them the papers, they were rejecting them outright.

Awais said “I started my travel from Spain and journeyed all the way from there till I reached Pakistan. My travel throughout the world went smoothly, and each country’s customs welcomed me warmly without any issues. “But when I reached Pakistan-Iran’s Taftan border, I was told that I can’t take my car to Punjab despite having all my documents. Their behavior has ruined my adventure.

He appealed to the government to please make his car return.
