KARACHI: The Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) leaders said that it was unjust that Altaf Hussain’s accounts were frozen despite of his cooperation in the money laundering and other matters in Britain.
The MQM leaders were delivering speeches on Sunday in a massive rally held in Karachi to show solidarity with party chief Altaf Hussain.
Senior Leader of the party, Farooq Sattar, demanded British Prime Minister David Cameron to take notice of what he called were unlawful and blatant violations of human rights against MQM chief Altaf Hussain and his colleagues in London.
Sattar also questioned as to why had the accounts been seized without any proof, trial or charge being framed against his leader.
He further said that Altaf Hussain was continuously being harassed by the British administration and warned of going British courts and holding protests at 10 Downing Street against the behavior of British government.
Speaking on the occasion, MQM Deputy Convener Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui said that the British government should answer the question raised by Farooq Sattar.
He said that Altaf Hussain was victimised for speaking truth but said that he would not stop telling truth to the people and continue to do this.
Members of National Assembly, Sindh’s provincial assembly and Senators belonging to the MQM and the party’s office bears addressed the rally which was attended by a large number of activists and supporters.
The participators also included a number of women and children.
