Bosnia and Herzegovina and Pakistan on Wednesday signed a readmission agreement which should facilitate dealing with the problem of illegal migration.

The document was signed in Islamabad by Bosnia's Security Minister Selmo Cikotic and Pakistan's Interior Minister Ijaz Ahmad Shah.

About 14,000 migrants have entered Bosnia and Herzegovina illegally this year with the aim of reaching Western European countries via Croatia. A quarter of them are migrants from Pakistan.

Bosnian security services have found that 27 percent of the illegal migrants are from Afghanistan, 19 percent from Bangladesh and 10 percent from Morocco.
