Progressive Parties Being Made Targets of Terrorism: Altaf Hussain
KARACHI: Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) Chief Mr Altaf Hussain has strongly condemned the killings of the ANP candidate for NA-254 Sadiq Zaman Khattak and his son Shahid Khattak.
According to the statement released from London, Altaf Hussain said that the victims were coming out of a mosque with his son after offering the Friday prayer when they were targeted by the terrorists, which he said clearly demonstrates that the terrorist using the name of Islam had, in fact, nothing to do with Islam and were far removed from humanity.
The MQM chief said that progressive and moderate political parties were being made targets of terrorism, and it appeared that terrorists had been given free rein to carry out bomb blasts.
He called on the caretaker government that the killers of Sadiq Zaman and his son should be brought swiftly to justice.
Altaf extended sympathies to the ANP leader and workers on the tragic incident and prayed Almighty Allah to rest the departed souls in eternal peace.
