30 November, 2016 19:48

Muttahida Qaumi Movement Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chapter president Barrister Saif Ali Khan announced his personal support to the notorious terrorist of banned Deobandi outfit Sipah-e-Sahaba (ASWJ) Masroor Nawaz Jhangvi in the by-election to Punjab from Jhang district constituency PP-78.

Barrister Khan also defended the ideology of hatred, bigotry, intolerance and violent terrorism in the guise of sectarian rights being practiced by banned Sipah-e-Sahaba (ASWJ) and its sister-wing banned Lashkar-e-Jhangvi.
On the other hand, Salman Mujahid Baloch, a parliamentarian belonging to the MQM ridiculed the ruling PMLN and its federal and Punjab governments for not taking action against the proscribed ASWJ’s candidate despite the fact they were banned.
MQM’s founder and Pakistan-based leaders had been claiming the credit for sectarian unity and cohesion in Karachi and never officially sided with the takfiris as a party policy even though there were individuals who did so against the MQM’s stated policy.
