We want Growing pakistan........

I want to urgently bring to your attention the activities of a British citizen, Mr. Altaf Hussain, who was granted this status after he fled from Pakistan as a fugitive from justice. At the time of his arrival in London, he was facing 234 registered criminal cases against him, including 44 murder charges and 18 torture charges.

His party, the MQM, is controlled by Mr. Hussain in mafia-style, with his word being the law. Detractors face the ultimate punishment – death – carried out through the private armed force maintained at his Karachi barricaded headquarters known as Nine Zero.

On Mr. Hussain’s order, his party was involved in the 12th May 2007
carnage in Karachi where 48 people were killed and 200 sustained
bullet wounds, including 10 workers belonging to my party, Pakistan
Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). You can refer to your Karachi Consulate’s
report on this incident. The MQM then went on to physically disrupt
court hearings of this incident.

Most recently, and at a time when the MQM is a coalition partner in
the [PPPP] federal and provincial [Sindh] governments, Mr. Hussain
(sitting in London) sought to incite ethnic violence and vigilantism
by calling on his supporters to arm themselves and fight
“talibanisation” – a label he tried to put on the 2 million Pushtun
workers of Karachi. As a result, 36 people were killed over two days
of violence. When the Sindh Inspector General of Police implicated the MQM in his inquiry, they demanded his immediate removal.

In 2007, on two occasions, the Federal Court of Canada ruled that the MQM met the legal definition of a terrorist organisation and its
members could not be given political asylum. In addition, the U.S.
State Department website describes the MQM as a “violent
organisation”.

Considering that the British government has arrested people on mere
suspicion in the Heathrow case and the recent Pakistani students’
case, it is shocking to find that no investigation has been conducted
into the activities of Mr. Hussain despite his public criminal record
in Pakistan. Or does the loss of Pakistani lives through acts of
terrorism incited by a British national hold no relevancy for the
British government?

It is this duality of standards which is losing the U.S. and Britain
the war for hearts and minds in Pakistan and thereby undermining their efforts to combat terrorism. Now that your government has identified a list of persona-non-grata, I sincerely hope you will hold an urgent inquiry into Mr. Hussain’s activities in Pakistan in the light of British laws on terrorism.
