Altaf says clerics should have protested against Shah

Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain on Thursday said no one’s conscience was shaken when the word ‘Muhajir’, was abused.

He said clerics should have demonstrated against Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader Khursheed Shah’s statement.

Addressing a session of religious clerics via telephone from London, Hussain said that anyone who denies Quran is outside the fold of Islam, adding that the clerics kept resting at home and didn’t even say a word against Khursheed Shah’s offensive statements.

MQM chief said that some clerics and even institutions are involved in inciting sectarian hatred.
