Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Chairman Altaf Hussain on Monday said he only feared the Almighty and no earthly force could deter him, as MQM Deputy Convener Farooq Sattar said that party workers had stopped their party chief from coming to Pakistan because he faces “unnatural threats” in the country.
Addressing the MQM Coordination Committee, Hussain said that he was not afraid of any personal allegations, and asked his supporters if his distancing himself from politics or facing the charge against him would impact the security situation in Pakistan.
The MQM chief said that he would respond to the Supreme Court’s contempt notice after consulting with his legal aides.
Meanwhile in Pakistan, Farooq Sattar said “Personalities like Altaf Hussain are born in centuries. He is a ray of hope for millions of Pakistanis and we cannot expose him to the real and present dangers”.
He said it would not be appropriate to ask Hussain to come to Pakistan in the present circumstances. “It was due to the existing hazards that he was stopped several times by the MQM workers from returning to his homeland.”
