The British citizen Altaf Hussein is responsible for the murder of the woman vice-president of Imran Khan's PTI in Karachi today !!!

[UmarJustice]

[Safriz]

[coffee_cup]

There is no proof.

He is the prime suspect and can - at the very least - be tried for threatening so openly on the public TV. That alone carries a 5-10 years sentence (?).

Where ??? Nothing is being done in Karachi ... Which you quoted ................

 

[airmarshal]

Yes, its a no brainer. The timing of the murder and the terrorizing of PTI sit ins is the work of MQM only.

MQM goons armed with hand guns have doing rounds around PTI dharnas. Obviously they are not TTP. They are MQM terrorists. And also listen to the dog barking from London. You will realize from his threats and his local band of terrorists in KArachi who is behind this. All night there had been firing incidents in NA-250 by 'namaloom afraad'.

Politics in Pakistan

Politics in Pakistan’s biggest city
A killing in Karachi
May 19th 2013, 9:46 by Banyan | KARACHI

THE police in Karachi say they still have an open mind about the murder, late on May 18th, of Zohra Shahid Hussain, a senior politician with the opposition Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), or Movement for Justice. The three young men on a motorcycle who attacked her outside her home may have been robbers, they say. Her party colleagues, however, are in no doubt that she fell victim to a political assassination. She died on the eve of a partial rerun in one Karachi constituency of the general election held on May 11th.

PTI’s leader, Imran Khan, a charismatic former captain of the national cricket team, was quick to blame Altaf Hussain, the exiled leader of Karachi’s dominant political party, the Muttahida Qaumi Mahaz, or MQM, as “directly responsible” for the murder. The MQM was equally quick to deny the charge, accusing Mr Khan of “immaturity” and threatening to sue him for defamation.

Karachi has a terrible record of violence, much of it political. Eleven people were killed on May 18th alone. Political parties have close links to gangsters, and the city is also home to extremists from the Pakistani Taliban and other groups with terrorist tendencies. The MQM is both the best-organised of the city’s political parties, and, as the one in power, seen as the best able to bully and intimidate its rivals. “It is a fascist party,” says Arif Alvi, the PTI’s candidate in the contested constituency.

Against this background, Mr Khan accused Mr Hussain of openly threatening PTI workers through public broadcasts. Police in Britain are investigating Mr Hussain after receiving hundreds of complaints about a speech he made on May 12th, which the PTI took to be inciting violence against its workers. The MQM insists its leader’s words were taken out of context and misinterpreted.

On the ground in Karachi, Mr Alvi is also convinced his colleague was killed by political rivals. She died of two bullets through the head, shot from under the chin. He says that, overnight, the noise of guns fired into the air could be heard through much of the constituency. He likens this to an MQM tactic used in advance of the strikes it sometimes calls—violence the previous evening intimidates people into observing its orders.

In one part of the constituency, Hijrat Colony, an area of tumbledown shacks and cramped breeze-block houses, residents say men on motorcycles had driven round on the eve of the poll, telling people not to vote in the morning. The MQM boycotted the re-poll, demanding fresh voting in all of the constituency's polling stations, not just the 43 designated by the Election Commission (EC), after allegations of vote-rigging and of EC incompetence in failing to provide the polling stations with ballot papers and voters’ lists.

The boycott was also observed by the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), which, despite being trounced in the national election, remains the main party in the province of Sindh of which Karachi is part; and by Jamaat-e-Islami, an Islamic party which was contesting it under a seat-sharing arrangement with the Pakistan Muslim League (N), the PML-N, which triumphed nationally.

The MQM has dominated politics in Karachi for three decades. It was formed to represent the interests of the Mohajirs—Urdu-speaking migrants who came to the city after partition from India in 1947. The city has expanded enormously—to a population of an estimated 18m today. The MQM has maintained its supremacy despite challenges from the PPP, which represents mainly the Sindhis, and the Awami National Party (ANP), representing the many ethnic Pushtuns who have moved to the city in recent years.

But on May 11th, the PTI emerged as the main opposition, the runner-up in 15 of 17 seats declared. Some of this was achieved by mobilising the so-called “burger class”, the well-educated elite that has hitherto tended to shun politics, and is now, nationwide, a leading force in what Mr Khan calls a “tsunami” started by the PTI. In a posh school used as a polling station in Karachi’s Defence Housing Authority, many well-dressed middle-aged residents were voting for the first time.

In Hijrat and elsewhere, however, the PTI is clearly also eating into the MQM’s support. Overall the MQM's share of the vote in Karachi on May 11th fell from 72% in the previous election in 2008 to 61% now. If the MQM did intend to intimidate voters ahead of the voting, it seems to have some success. Most polling stations reported low turnout, and PTI voters (the only ones to be found) said that others had been scared to come, despite the heavy presence of soldiers, policemen and paramilitary rangers at all the polling stations.

In the nation's capital, Islamabad, officials and foreign diplomats alike see the election on May 11th as having been the most successful, in terms of the credibility of the process, in Pakistan’s history. The result, giving the PML-N the chance to lead a strong central government, has also been welcomed. And the PTI’s surge—coming from nowhere to challenge the PPP as the main national opposition—has been seen as a big factor in the high turnout in most parts of the country.

Karachi, however, presents the incoming government with one of its biggest problems. The MQM, an influential player in most previous federal coalitions, is now out of government in Islamabad, and facing what Mr Alvi says is the biggest challenge left to its dominance of Karachi. It still, however, has its coercive power, and the fanatical loyalty Mr Hussain commands among many of the MQM’s foot-soldiers.

It also has the power to embarrass Britain, for Mr Hussain is a British citizen. Mr Khan has already said he also holds the British government responsible for Ms Hussain’s murder.

It seems that the unexpected political activism in Karachi for Elections 2013 has caused serious consequences for Muttahida Qaumi Movement, once the most popular political party of the Urdu speaking community. The apparent reaction to PTI, JI and civil society’s massive protests against rigging has resulted in cold blooded murder of Zehra Shahid Hussain, Senior Vice President of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf on 18th May 2013 and the murder of Abid Ilyas, former nazim union council Liaquatabad Town affiliated with Jamat-e-Islami on 17th May 2013.

The situation could be analyzed from a couple of different perspectives. The fact that deteriorating law and order situation in Karachi over the past few years never raised serious concerns from rangers, army and security agencies is quite alarming. Many people believe that army’s silence has lately been a key factor in deteriorating Karachi’s situation. It points to either Pakistan Army’s involvement and support for armed groups in Karachi or their incapability to cope up with more powerful non-state actors.

The murder of PTI’s Senior Vice President Zehra Shahid Hussain one day before the re-polling in NA-250, where army was already deployed adds to the argument. Murder in presence of a large number of rangers, army or police officials proves their incapability to perform their duties, despite drawing a huge budget from taxpayer’s money.

The global perspective to Karachi’s situation is that United Kingdom has been directly or indirectly patronizing terrorism in Karachi by providing all sorts of comfort to MQM’s chief Altaf Hussain. Despite recent protest and complains by thousands of Pakistanis from all over the world about the involvement of a British citizen in inciting hatred and executing cold blooded murders in Karachi, there is no significant legal action by United Kingdom’s police and government. This could be in line with “some greater agenda” of separating Karachi from Pakistan, which has been cited by Hussain a number of times.

Repect Party MP for Bradford West, George Galloway, a strong supporter of Pakistan since 40 years, has been vocal against Altaf Hussain and has asked the British Prime Minister and Home Secretary to remove MQM leader’s British citizenship. Mr. Galloway tweeted:

George Galloway @georgegalloway

If the British govt won't deal with Altaf Hussain I will begin a private legal action to do so
4:51 PM - 18 May 2013

The next Prime Minister of Pakistan Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif looks like a more mature politician now, and ground reality is, he is the key person who can help bring some relief to the people of Karachi, unless restricted by international stakeholders. However, his statements and proceedings indicate that he is more power hungry than before and willing to do anything to protect his ‘Prime Minister Kingdom’ for the next 5 years.

His meeting with COAS and apparent assurance not to proceed with Musharraf’s trial is another discouraging news, which also indicates that he might not pursue anything against MQM to ensure stability for his government.

The next important person in the list is PTI’s Chairman Imran Khan. Mr. Khan filed a case in the United Kingdom against Altaf Hussain, but could not proceed with it because Government of Pakistan and establishment held back evidences against MQM’s chief. However, this will not be the case in next few months.

Nawaz Sharif and Imran Khan will be the two main players in the new government, both being victims of MQM’s hatred and terrorism. Unless the personal interests of Nawaz Sharif stop both from cleaning up the dirty mess in Karachi, there is no reason why corrective administrative measures should not be taken to improve Karachi’s situation. Both the leaders have the political ability and strength to do so. Ground realities might be challenging in Karachi, but it is will that matters.

More importantly, after the murder of PTI’s Senior Vice President in Karachi, Imran might also have realized the blunder he commited by opting for a softer stance against MQM in pursuit of votes from the Urdu speaking community. Neither was PTI able to secure any seats from Karachi, nor PTI workers are any safer today in the metropolis. Karachiites would have been better off if they could see an end to the legal proceedings with a positive outcome.

PTI has emerged as the second largest party in Karachi after MQM and people of Karachi voted for change. The effort for change does not end with polling at NA-250 or other constituencies. With all the international influence that Imran Khan has, coupled with so-called political wisdom of Nawaz Sharif added to the street power of Jamat-e-Islami and the civil society, Karachi can still get rid of this menace.

The way thousands of Pakistanis called up London Police and registered a complain against a British citizen spreading hatred in Karachi, it’s time now to flood Nawaz Sharif, Imran Khan, Pakistan Army and Chief Justice with calls and texts. Once this circle of influence start to feel the heat from Karachi, they are sure to act on it or keep up with the pressure. The numbers listed at the end of this article might help you.
