Altaf demands high-level probe into MQM’s activist murder

Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain decried the murder of party worker and demanded that the extra-judicial murder be investigated at high level.

Clamouring for justice, Altaf Hussain also called for the personnel involved in the killing to be brought to book. The spate of killing of citizens under custody should be stemmed forthwith, he emphasised.

It should be mentioned here that two unidentified gunmen riding a motorcycle killed two men associated with the MQM late Friday night (November 28) in Chishti Nagar area of Orangi Town within the limits of the Iqbal Market police station.

Witnesses said the deceased were shot multiple times resulting in serious injuries to the two. Later, they were rushed to Abbasi Shaheed Hospital where they passed away owing to critical condition.

Shahid Hussain, 35, son of Muhammad Hussain was party’s activist and was associated with the unit 118-B. And, Shahbaz, son of Muhammad Nawaz was the party’s supporter.

Reacting to the MQM chief’s demand after midnight, the city police chief summoned a report in connection with assassination of the Muttahida worker. According to police a spokesman, the SSP Malir has been designated to table the report within 24 hours.
