Why couldn't you just say you had family there? What's all this rigmarole about them working for Allied Bank??
Having your ancestors buried in Sindh or having an Arab ancestor from Yemen sharing their fate should have no bearing at all on your relationship with the current situation in Pakistan.
I have family there and it affects me deeply. What's happening there NOW affects me. You need to get over your issues with your heritage and ancestory.
