KARACHI: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) leaders met with Sindh Home Minister Manzoor Wassan in Karachi on Saturday to discuss measures to effectively tackle the issues of extortionand kidnappings.
MQM leader Farooq Sattar, while talking to the media after the meeting, said that they have started off with two constituencies – NA-249 and NA-252 – and have called the business representatives of these areas to discuss the matters.
“Business life has been crippled… action should be taken against them [miscreants],” said Sattar.
He added that not only the police and Rangers will assist the business community in helping to get rid of the extortionists and kidnappers, but committees will also be formulated from among the common men to reduce the street crimes.
“The black sheep involved in such acts should be exposed,” he added.

@Hassan: Not extort people, but who opposed them or their policies
@ Ishtiaq
So according to you MQM will extort people, get unpopular, lose votes just because they dont have the interior ministry anymore? Yeeahh... you are right, that makes much more sense
@Hassan: your question is your reply dear :)
@ All who post against MQM
Where was this extortion when MQM had the interior ministry?? What has changed now? Use your wonderful logic on that
Wassan must have had this idea in one of his wildest dreams.
Why are we critcizing our own politicians? First look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself why you chose them as one's leader ? Think. :)
There was not need for the MQM delegation to meet the Provincial Minister of Interior Mr. Manzoor Wassan, as MQM leaders knows very well as who are the extortionists
If MQM wants to end the extortion from Karachi, it can do it in 24 hours.
Only MQM Chief Mr. Altaf Hussain has to ask MQM workers to make sure that he does not want to hear a single complaint of extortion and his orders would be complied.
.
THEY will be ending extortion? Where do they intend to migrate to?
Turf war of survival has been waged by all major polical parties in Pakistan for decades. Nothing will be gained by digging up old graves and skeletons in everyones closets. Waste of precious time. All political parties must admit mistakes, have guts to apologize to nation, start a new road to nation building.
just look at the headline and the picture. it says it all.

If MQM involves in Extortion, Then Business community will not stand along with MQM. But the reality is that, Business Community of Karachi trust on MQM and stand along with MQM's representatives. In this response, MQM always raised its voice for the protection of business community. Extortion's blame game about MQM is fabricated & baseless.
The wolves will guard the henhouses??? or is it because other people have learnt the art and improved on it??
Hope some good comes of it...
MQM to end extortion: buahaha Lol - LAUGH OUT LOUD!!!!
“The black sheep involved in such acts should be exposed,”
Mirror mirror on the wall, Who is 'not the murderer' from us all?. My dear countrymen, now lick up to your long-awaited democracy which 'enables' the wanted and gangsters/extortionist/murderer to "rule".
