The Muttahida Qaumi Movement’s (MQM) Coordination Committee on Wednesday has demanded that the British government should take notice of seven people sustaining injuries during Zulfiqar Mirza's address in London.
In a statement released by the coordination committee, it was alleged that Zulfiqar Mirza's guards attacked the participants who questioned Mirza’s objectionable statements during his address at a community centre in London.

Does Altaf "bhai" and esteemed "Rabita committee" know that intimidating a witness and suppressing evidence is a crime in the UK? This is what they are doing to Dr. Mirza; intimidating him to suppress the evidence. It is possible that Dr. Imran Farook's murderers may never be caught and convicted but there is enough prima facie evidence to charge Altaf and MQM with witness intimidition, evidence suppressing and obstructing an on going murder investigation. Some one just needs to bring this to British prosecutors' attention.
YES, MQM must demand British government take notice of injuries in Mirza's address yesterday. Yes, MQM should and will realise that it is not Karachi but London and the British media do not give a damn about their complaint against Dr Zulfiqar Mirza but would definitely excite the British police to find out who were these men who created a rumpus while Dr Mirza was addressing the audience.
The more MQM makes noises about the visit the more the British police will become interested why Dr Zulfiqar is in London what he was doing? It will be pertinent to say here that Dr Zulfiqar Mirza has had three sittings with the Scotland Yard and obviously they are not having meetings for the sake of fun. The SY is definitely taking into consideration the documents and transcripts which will lead to the supremo. The day is not far.
