KARACHI:
In a statement released on Wednesday, the Co-ordination Committee of Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) said that the basic party membership of Karachi Tanzeemi Committee (KTC) in charge, Hammad Siddiqui has been terminated.

This decision was taken on the basis of an accountability process started on the instructions of party chief Altaf Hussain, which led them to conclude that Siddiqui violated the party discipline, the statement said.

The committee issued instructions to the MQM party workers to stop maintaining contact with Siddiqui and has warned members that violations of the instruction would result in disciplinary action.

The decision to terminate KTC in-charge's membership came shortly after MQM announced its decision to dissolve the Karachi Tanzeemi Committee itself, following complaints received about the committee’s inefficiency.


Altaf Hussain's telephonic instructions

In his telephonic conversation with MQM party workers, MQM chief emphasised that if any member is found asking for money from shops and businesses, his membership should be immediately terminated.

The MQM chief added that membership should also be revoked of  party workers who have illegally occupied properties and buildings in the city.

Altaf said that MQM is a party that strives for the rights of the people and must have "zero tolerance" for workers who are proven to be involved in corrupt activities.
