The Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), again refuting the charges levelled by Dr Zulfiqar Mirza against its chief Altaf Hussain, demanded on Wednesday that the government and judiciary should take appropriate action against the former home minister.
Speaking at a press conference on Wednesday, MQM deputy convenors Dr Farooq Sattar and Anees Kaimkhani pointed out that Dr Mirza’s claim that Hussain is hatching a conspiracy to break the country has been snubbed by his own fellow Pakistan People’s Party member Pir Mazharul Haq.
Calling Dr Mirza a “blatant liar” for his “unfounded and baseless allegations”, the MQM leaders demanded strict action against the former home minister as he “hurt the sentiments of Hussain’s followers”.
“Dr Mirza must repent before God for his sins as he lied with the holy Quran over his head,” they said.
ATTACK ON PAKISTANIS IN LONDON CONDEMNED: The MQM has denounced and condemned the violent attack on the members of the Pakistani community by the “terrorists” of the former home minister of Sindh Zulfiqar Mirza in a programme held in Willesden Green area of London.
In a press statement issued on Wednesday, the Rabita Committee of the party said that Mirza was addressing a meeting in the community centre of Willesden Green area of London. “When some of the participants of the meeting raised questions on his highly incendiary speech containing the objectionable sentences, the terrorists with Zulfiqar Mirza turned violent and attacked them,” the Rabita Committee said in the statement. “These terrorists did not even spare a young girl from their cruel attack.”
The Rabita Committee said that Mirza is spreading hatred among the Pakistani community in London through his spiteful speeches.
It said that Mirza was blatantly violating the law and spoiling peace of the city. They appealed to the British government to take notice of the Mirza’s “terrorism” and stop it.
