During a telephonic address to party's workers, Rabita Committee members, and other leaders at the Nine Zero headquarters of the MQM, Altaf said that the government could neither stop drone attacks nor could it instruct for it. Talking about the blasts in Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... 's Ancholi area a day earlier, he said that the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP) had claimed the credit for the attack and yet no Taliban sympathiser protested against the kabooms. He further appealed to the government and all political and religious parties to declare the proscribed TTP, its direct and indirect supporters, and sympathisers as enemies of humanity worse than beasts. Altaf Hussain also appealed to the prime minister, federal ministers, political and religious parties to shun the politics of deceit and to inform the people of facts. Posted by: Fred 2013-11-24 |
