UAE hands over MQM’s ex-leader Hammad Siddiqui to Pakistan
[DAWN] Former Muttahida Qaumi Movement leader Hammad Siddiqui, who was tossed in the calabooseBook 'im, Mahmoud! in Dubai around two months ago, was handed over to Pakistain by UAE authorities, a private news channel claimed on Friday. Quoting unnamed sources, Geo News said that the "deportation" of Mr Siddiqui, a key suspect in the 2012 Baldia factory fire in which over 250 labourers were killed, was conducted not through standard operating procedures, but by mutual intelligence coordination between Pakistain and the UAE. It said that Interpol handed over Mr Siddiqui to a "Pak intelligence agency last night" and he was moved to Islamabad. However, death is not the end. There remains the litigation over the estate... Pak diplomatic officials in the UAE maintained silence on the development, it added. Posted by: Fred 2017-12-09 |
