George Galloway, the MP for Bradford, has set up a fund to initiate
“legal proceedings against the presence in the UK of Altaf Hussain and
his activities co-ordinated from the UK but gravely affecting Pakistan,”
according to a local newspaper report. This has come on heels of the
speech of the leader of MQM, Altaf Hussain addressing his party workers
and supporters via telephone at his party’s Headquarters, Nine Zero. In a
speech televised across various media channels, Altaf Hussain demanded
to separate Karachi from the rest of Pakistan if the public mandate of
his party was not acceptable to the ‘establishment.’ Hussain’s party
later clarified saying it was taken out of context. ” MQM, which once
started out as a liberal political party that sought to protect the
rights of the Urdu speaking people today stands accused of unlawful
actions.
