The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Monday urged the Supreme Court to take action against Muttahida Qaumi Movement chief Altaf Hussain for threatening to separate Karachi from Pakistan.
PTI Central Information Secretary Dr Shireen Mazari expressed shock at the statement of MQM leader Altaf Hussain basically threatening a break-up of Pakistan.
She said as a leader of a Pakistani political party Altaf Hussain’s remarks contravene the constitution which makes it incumbent on all citizens not to say or do anything that threatens the territorial integrity of the country.
Dr Mazari added that for a politician to demand the separation of a part of Pakistan and give a barely veiled threat of violence to that end WAS a clear contravention of Article 5 of the constitution – “loyalty to state and obedience to constitution and law”.
Advocating the breaking away of Karachi from Pakistan is contravention of this article.
Moreover, Altaf Hussain’s statement is also in violation of the Pakistan Penal Code Chapter VI, Section 123 A Condemnation of Creation of the State and Advocacy of Abolition of Sovereignty and Section 124A Sedition.
Under these legal infractions, Dr Mazari demanded that the SC needed to take immediate notice of Altaf Hussain’s dangerous statement. If the SC does not do so, it is incumbent on the federal and provincial governments to act.
She expressed amazement over the dangerous and distorted logic of the MQM leader who chose to respond to charges of massive rigging by his party with a threat of breaking Karachi away from rest of Pakistan – like a spoilt child throwing a tantrum because he couldn’t get his way.
In conclusion, Dr Mazari also expressed concern over the UK government allowing its soil and its citizen to threaten violence and the territorial integrity of another sovereign state, a member of the Commonwealth and a member of the UN. This is against the basic norms of inter-state relations.

  1. HIS MAJESTY'S GOVERNMENT SHOULD DEPORT THIS INDIVIDUAL (UK CITIZEN BY NATURALIZATION) FOR INCITING TERROR ON THE STREETS OF PAKISTAN………HIS CITIZENSHIP SHOULD BE REVOKED….THE MOTHER OF DEMOCRACY SHOULD LIVE UP TO ITS HIGH DEMOCRATIC TRADITIONS AND FAIR PLAY…….

  2. In Karachi, the workers of opponent party are harrasing noble and peace full Citizens and Communty members including Ismaili Muslim, Memon and Bohra, who voted for PTI.

    • Why not London police take action against him. This is He openely threatened Karachi. Well I read the Article. Seems london police cant do any thing.

      • Maybe he is a British asset…Remember his letter to British PM???
        See HERE

        And that was back in 2001… DON'T MISS THE FIRST THREE POINTS OF HIS OFFER……

  3. Free port Karachi ……………..just like Hong Kong and Singapore. I think , it is a progressive idea to bring FDI, development in Pakistan……..

  4. If MQM wants a seperate country then they should return back to the country their elders came from as Mahajors and ask them for a country!

  5. I am myself is Urdu speaking (Muhajir) but trust me I hate Altaf Hussein and his terrorist organization more than any other ethnic group in Pakistan. He is the biggest liar, traitor and criminal of Pakistan. He should be hanged till death. Most of Urdu speaking in Karachi hate him.

  6. Ungrateful refugees, trying to cut the arm that saved and fed them – the Pakistan government should organise a plan for the refugee who is not happy in Pakistan and shift them back to hindustan where they belong!

  7. I agree with your opinon Mr Mir. The Pakistan government should get in touch with India ASAP, to organise some sort of plan for any refugee that is not happy to live in Karachi, Pakistan to be shipped back to that country!

  8. Not all (Muhajir) are traitors and looking to divide Karachi, from Pakistan. For example Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan.

  9. Mr Sohial that’s one in ten thousand. Mr Abdul Qadeer Khan, is that one [muhajir] in ten thousand who loves and lives his life for Pakistan. The refugees of that era think much different than the children they have left behind!

  10. Send all these back-stabbing (muhajirs) back to India. The recent behaviour off these refugees suggest that they are part of a plan in partnership with America/UK/Israel to break Karachi and sindh from Pakistan!

  11. If Altaf Hussein is a man and has done nothing wrong, then he should return to Pakistan, just like Mr Musharraf.

  12. My friend Shoiab, you have forgot to include India in that list, who along with USA/UK/Israel are funding and commanding Altaf kanjaar, to unsettle and liberate Karachi!
