National, international actions underway to frighten MQM workers, warns Altaf

MQM chief asks workers to remain united and consult the coordination committee.

KARACHI: Claiming that actions were underfoot at both national and international levels to break his determination and frighten Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) workers, the party chief urged his workers to remain united.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, MQM chief Altaf Hussain asked his party workers to maintain unwavering unity among their ranks and file, adding that it was the need of the time to show patience.

Altaf claimed that leaders, workers and sympathisers of no other Pakistani political party had been meted out similar treatment. He declared that such tactics would not be able to diminish their resolve and determination.

The MQM chief said that he was well aware of the fact that there was a sense of confusion among the workers and the general public following some news reports. However, he maintained that the MQM could not be broken by injustices and oppression and have frustrated every conspiracy against the party.

Altaf asked the MQM workers to consult the coordination committee and avoid taking any decision on their own.
