LONDON: The leader and founder of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Altaf Hussain is set to go on trial at the Kingston Crown Court from Monday, January 31, for approximately three weeks in the hate speech case brought by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS).
Scotland Yard had charged Hussain in October 2019 with a terrorism offence in a case related to his controversial speech relayed live from the United Kingdom to his followers in Pakistan on August 22, 2016.
The MQM founder, 68, was investigated by detectives from the Met Police's Counter-Terrorism Command over his speech that caused riots in Karachi and attacks on news channels. He was arrested on June 11, 2019, on suspicion of intentionally encouraging or assisting offences contrary to Section 44 of the Serious Crime Act 2007. He was released on bail and subsequently charged.
Hussain will be defended by his lawyers at Corker Binning against the Crown’s lawyers. Hussain has denied the charge and says he will defend himself at the trial and during the cross-examination.
"Altaf Hussain [...], of Abbey View, Mill Hill, NW7, was charged under section 1(2) of the Terrorism Act (TACT) 2006 with encouraging terrorism," the Met Police had said.
According to the Metropolitan Police, Altaf Hussain "On August 22, 2016, published a speech to crowds gathered in Karachi, Pakistan which were likely to be understood by some or all of the members of the public to whom they were published as a direct or indirect encouragement to them to the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism and at the time he published them, intended them to be so encouraged, or was reckless as to whether they would be so encouraged."
According to section 1(2) of the Terrorism Act 2006, a person commits an offence if he (a) he publishes a statement to which this section applies or causes another to publish such a statement; and (b) at the time he publishes it or causes it to be published, he (i) intends members of the public to be directly or indirectly encouraged or otherwise induced by the statement to commit, prepare or instigate acts of terrorism or Convention offences; or (ii) is reckless as to whether members of the public will be directly or indirectly encouraged or otherwise induced by the statement to commit, prepare or instigate such acts or offences.
Under section 1(7) of the same act, a person found guilty of an offence under this section shall be liable (a) on conviction on indictment, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding [15 years] or to a fine, or to both; (b) on summary conviction in England and Wales, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum, or to both; (c) on summary conviction in Scotland or Northern Ireland, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum, or to both.
Ahead of the trial, Hussain had written to the CPS stating that his trial should not go ahead because he is "physically and mentally unfit to stand terrorism trial in January 2022" but his application was rejected.
Hussain wrote to the CPS that he had recently suffered from COVID-19 and went through an extremely difficult health situation that has affected his health and state of mind overall, therefore, the trial should be cancelled and the case dropped.
The MQM leader had spent nearly a month in Barnet Hospital from mid-December last year to January 12, 2021, after being taken in an ambulance for suffering "serious" COVID-19 symptoms.

He has been hiding behind different issues for years and evading his trial. He is still active on the SM and I personally feel the majority of the Mohajir community still follow him. Just today in Karachi his sleeper cells were activated and the shops were forced to close. His famous FIST statue is a symbol of Muhajir power.

So the Scotland yars saw the video now? Or they realized now it was inciting violence? Shows these western countries are hypocrites and actually supporters of criminals and thieves.

Both iltafu and nawazu was created by establishment to corner PPP in 80s , they both living shamelessly in UK now , but you know where is PPP and zardari ,even though he is daku he still living in Pakistan after being jailed for 10 years, he did not runaway like dogs

What I hear from Karachi is people are fed up of MQM politics. He has lots of money but his following is dwindling. I think activation of Mustufa Kamal and attempts at combining 3 fa tions of MQM is anothef attempt by the powers that be to counter his influence along with that of PPP. Whereas the later is not a force in urban Karachi other than Lyari the rural Sindh is where the fight will be with PPP.
As to this khabees I hope that they throw him in the dungeon and throw away the keys. This kutta had the power to change the landscape of the whole country if he had progressed on from Mohajir issues to a more inclusive national party. But he was more busy looting money and cutting cakes over his birthdays. He turned into a Firaun and Allah has punished him in this life and possibly in the hereafter.
I really despair for this country. We have a beautiful country beinv destroyed by morons.
Incidentally the Mill hill where he lives the average house price in 2.5 million. One has to ask from where thks tutpoonjia honda 50 rider acquired all this wealth and if this is party money who has the ownership of this property.

I totally agree with you, our beautiful city of Karachi has been held hostage by these thugs for many decades. In the previous election many Karachiites stayed home in protest, nevertheless his sway is slowly but surely on the decline.

Yes the city was hostage and altaf was a gangster but what about establishment's decision to apply quota system. City is still hostage by other strong Mafia.

The quota system is another scourge to afflict our nation. No where else do we see Quota system. The irony is the boys coming in from interior Sindh are bright enough to make it on their own. However for most quotas you get duffers coming in under one guise or another. The worst is CM's quota. Dont get me started otherwise I will explode and I am nearer to my grave than most of you so fear it the most.
Allhhumma musta'aan.

Dear Sir, I truly trust your words and i also know how it works. One addition, I think most of the quota has taken by punjabis but we only blame sindhis. Most punjabi boys have links with military or agencies or with bearucrats or with old officers and they took the job.

 

[CrazyZ]

I think this recent synagogue hostage incident has woke up the British Authorities. Many sponsors of radicalism in Pakistan are sitting in the UK, enjoying western protections. Best place for terrorist leaders isn't the caves of Afghanistan, but living western nations with their civil protections.

if he spoke himself for 5 minutes before the judge, he will get immediate relief by the judge on insanity clause

One addition, I think most of the quota has taken by punjabis but we only blame sindhis. Most punjabi boys have links with military or agencies or with bearucrats or with old officers and they took the job.

Punjabi aren't asking for special syllabus to compete in the civil services or anywhere else .


I say abandon this country wide qouta system why insist on just provincial one? and then see for yourself how we outclass lahore/Karachi not only in govt services but also in science scholarships meanwhile staying well within our villages and towns -------.and you my brother know very well where all the fancy universities/academies are situated .
