Saulat Mirza’s wife on Friday stated that her husband was being punished due to wrong doings of Muttahida Qaumi Movement’s (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain and the party itself.
She questioned that when Mirza was not nominated in the First Information Report (FIR), then why he was being punished.
In an exclusive interview with a private television channel, Mirza’s wife stated that the case should be reinvestigated and the true facts should be highlighted. She stated that her husband was not the only one culprit as many others involved in the crime should also be punished.
She also stated that she received three threatening calls in a day. The caller threatened that Mirza and her wife were not doing the right thing and the consequences of their actions would be dangerous, she added.
Mirza’s wife stated the MQM chief used to say that Saulat was their tiger but now he (Altaf) was saying that he never heard of him (Saulat). She stated that various MQM leaders were in contact with her husband but now they were lying about it.
She claimed that she met with the Sindh governor numerous times and even talked to Hussain via phone. Mirza’s wife stated that they were in contact with Muhammaed Anwer in London and they updated him about details of the case. She added that her husband did not give the video statement under anybody’s pressure. The motive behind it was to protect those people who were being used by the MQM, she claimed.
Mirza’s wife also informed that her husband was not able to attend the funeral of his parents due to the party.
