Muttahida Qaumi Movement's Rabita Committee has condemned the brutal murders in Gulshan-e-Iqbal 13-D, saying that a banned jihadi outfit was involved in killing of two innocent people. In a statement, Rabita Committee claimed that the outfit was trying to occupy a mosque in the area to use it for its terrorist activities.
It said: the terrorists of the group have been hurling threats at the mosques patron, administrators, and people who come for prayer. They patrol around the mosques with guns. Recently, they have targeted people belonging to a sect in the area. Son-in-law of Allama Talib Jauhri is one of the victims.
Rabita Committee said Haq Parast member of the provincial assembly had informed police about the growing activities of Jihadi terrorists.
However, police did not address their concerns. They added that they had killed two more people after killing Advocate Mubarak Kazmi.
It is disquieting and cause of concern that a loyal party like MQM is being targeted, which has supported the operation Zarb-e-Azb. Its workers are being arrested and subjected to inhuman torture, but people who are working against the integrity of Pakistan and attacked armed forces are roaming about freely.
Patriotic people are justified in asking the question why some elements are punishing MQM for their support for Zarb-e-Azb, it questioned.
