Afrasiab wants MQM declared terror-outfit

President of Awami National Party (ANP) Khyber Pakthukhwa Afrasiab Khattak said Saturday the government and Supreme Court should declare the MQM a terrorist organisation and put restrictions on it, Geo News reported.

Speaking during a news conference Khattak responded to the allegations MQM chief Altaf Hussain leveled against the ANP. Khattak said the ANP was not the creation of the mafia or a gang and that Hussain’s hands were soaked with the blood of Pakhtuns.

Speaking on the carnage, which took place in Karachi on May 12, 2007, Khattak said the situation in the city would not improve unless there was an investigation into incidents, which took place on that day. He added that they would not be satisfied until those behind the carnage were caught.

Khattak added that Hussain had no answer to accusations made against him and his party by Zulfiqar Mirza.
