Farooque insisted that party chief Altaf Hussain had backed her, but she could not take the stress anymore. She maintained that she was committed to her party leadership and would remain so.

Its not the case, i knw her personally she is coming back next week, also there are hundred of MQM workers who left the party and still living in Karachi without any issues one of the example is Amir Liaquat Hussain, Allama Abbas Komil and others.
Left the party while she is out of Pakistan, Perhaps the only way to leave MQM while you are out of Pakistan :) Stay safe Ms. Irum
