Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Syed Munawar Hasan warned that anti-state elements had become active to destabilise country with the aim to postpone elections, and disturbance in Karachi and other cities of Sindh besides the rocket attack at Peshawar Airport were linked with that.
Addressing JI workers at Mansoora before his departure for Karachi Sunday, he said a terrorist organisation was bent on worsening the situation in Karachi which was already crumbling due to target killings and lawlessness. In fact, he said, MQM was furious over the Supreme Court orders for door-to-door survey of the voters and the fresh delimitation of constituencies. He said that all other parties in Karachi had welcomed and supported the court decision. On the other hand, the MQM considered it a conspiracy and had the apprehension that all its irregularities in this regard would be unearthed and it would be difficult for it to win the elections through coercion and rigging as it had been doing in the past. The issuance of contempt notice to Altaf Hussain had further infuriated it.
Munawar Hasan said that the disturbances in different cities and towns in Sindh on Saturday reflected a terrorist mindset. The people of Karachi had always considered the MQM a terrorist organisation and not a political party and the MQM had taken the people of Karachi as hostages.
The Supreme Court, he said, had taken timely notice of Altaf Hussain’s tirade against the judiciary and issued him a contempt notice. Instead of replying to the contempt notice in a lawful, constitutional way, the MQM had taken to violence and terrorism so as to cow down the court. In fact, the MQM leaders thought themselves above the law and the constitution.
Munawar Hassan strongly condemned the MQM’s campaign against the Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry and termed it immoral and unethical.
