The party's Rabita Committee in a statement said that steps should be immediately taken for the recovery of their activists.
According to the MQM, as many as 34 activists have gone missing during the ongoing security operation.
"Workers were arrested by different law enforcement agencies during the current operation. But they have not been presented in the court, nor is there any information on their whereabouts."
The MQM lauded the verdict of missing persons cases, saying that the cases of its party workers should be handled in the same way.
The party said that during the 1990s operation, at least 28 of its workers went missing and have still not been recovered.

When MQM was in government it neither asked, nor did anything to bring back the lost one!! Just saying!!
Good step by MQM.
Why no serious effort was undertaken by MQM during Musharraf period when they were enjoying absolute power. This is the question the families of the missing persons would also be asking to MQM.
Dear Chief Justice,
People of Karachi are also Pakistani, you took sou motu on missing persons of Baluchistan and elsewhere kindly have some nazar-e-karam on Karachites too.
From, Karachite
Missing Persons phenomena orginated in the 90's against MQM. If state actors & Judicary had taken firm action back then, this action wouldn't have gotten out of hand. It's not too late SC must acts
All true blue Karachites, who spend and be buried in Karachi, are considered guilty until proven innocent
LEA personnel are brought from rural areas to run Karachi’s agencies, and they bully and extort money for the release of innocent civilians. Two cases I know of personally. My mother’s help around the house, her son a married man with two kids got picked up, beaten to pulp and then released after a payment of 100K, another case of a young and hard working man who runs a laundry has a similar story.
Karachi needs indigenous policing to maintain law and order.
Missing Karachites will not be of any interest to the Supreme Court, no use appealing to them
Now we will see if we are considered Pakistani too ???? ET would post my comment if ET considers us Pakistani, yeah I am talking about mohajirs even after 66 years, thank you Pakistan
What missing person? Everyone knows Mustafa Kamal is in Dubai.
The endless shenanigans of this 'me too' party.
