Kazakhs in Pakistan are residents of Pakistan who are of ethnic Kazakh ancestry.
History
The ancient Silk Road, along which modern Pakistan and Kazakhstan are located, provided routes for linkages, travel, migration and economic activity between both regions since antiquity.[1]
Crime
Some Kazakhs were reportedly militants operating in the tribal areas along the Afghan border and inside neighbouring Afghanistan. A small number of them were affiliated with a little known Kazakh militant group called Jund al-Khilafah.[2]
