If you are an unmarried Pakistani, you cannot visit Sweden

While that is the title, it is an incorrect interpretation of the evidence. The actual statement is:

entry visas are only granted to Pakistanis who wish to visit immediate family members in Sweden and who can show that they are established in Pakistani society. Being established means having a family (husband, wife, children) in Pakistan to return to and/or to be established in the labour market.

I interpret that to mean that an unmarried Pakistani with a job (and/or real estate) in Pakistan can get a visa to visit Sweden. No children are needed.

The author, OTOH, translated it as "married with children". I believe this is too broad. It appears to be there as enumeration which is narrower than "immediate family."

I agree most with the comments by Hafiz Abdul Azeem ("This article shows author's immature understanding about visa process.") and UzairH.
