Senior Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan (MQM-P) leader, Kanwar Naveed Jameel, breathed his last in Karachi on Thursday after brief illness. He suffered a brain haemorrhage 18 months ago and was in a coma since then.
Recent difficulties in his breathing led to his hospitalisation a few days ago where he passed away on Thursday. The funeral prayer for the departed soul will be offered today at Mustafa Masjid in DHA Phase-I after Friday prayers. He will be laid to rest at the DHA Cemetery.
Jameel held a significant role within the MQM and was an integral part of party leadership. His political journey commenced with the party, where he also held the position of party’s zonal in-charge for Hyderabad. He achieved election victories to the National Assembly in 1999 and 2015, as well as to PS-127 in 2002 and 2018. In 2005, he assumed the charge as Nazim of Hyderabad. Born on March 15, 1964, in Hyderabad, he pursued his LLB from Jinnah Law College and obtained a BSc degree from Government Degree College. He leaves behind wife and two sons to mourn his demise.
