An Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) the other day directed the investigation officer to approach Interpol for the arrest of Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Founder Altaf Hussain.

The court also directed the investigation officer to contact interior ministry for the issuance of red warrants against Altaf on charges of provocative speeches, treason and chanting slogans against state’s sovereignty.

The order was issued after the investigation officer informed the judge that arrest order could not be implemented against the accused as he was living in London.

ATC also voiced displeasure over non-arrest of other absconding accused and issued non-bailable warrants against them.

Meanwhile, the ATC reserved verdict on bail plea of Shahid Pasha and other party leaders.
