KARACHI - Defections from the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) mounted further as Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP) leadership succeeded in cutting the organisational kites of MQM party structure.

Both ex-members of MQM made this announcement while addressing a Press conference at Kamal`s house in DHA Karachi.
Mustafa Kamal and Anis Qaimkhani were also present on the occasion.
Muhammad Raza told media men that he remained the part of MQM to get the basic issues resolved but unfortunately the party did not paid any heed to resolve it and used the party workers as tissue paper to achieve its nefarious agendas.
I have returned to country from London after 16 years and efforts by PSP made my return possible, said Raza.
Raza a former sector In-charge of MQM New Karachi during 1990s Karachi operation considered a highly wanted men, managed to leave the country and remained in self-exile.
He further said that Mustafa Kamal since March 3 is narrating the truth and facts. I went to London in year 1980 and was surprised to see anti-State agenda of MQM but I remained silent, he added.
“I was directed not to move to Pakistan from London but today I am back to Karachi to be the part of PSP`s ideology”.
Sources privy to the matter revealed that a senior MQM leader remains at a highly executive post in Sindh since many years assured Raza for clean chit on his arrival.
Ex-APMSO Chairman Waheed-uz-Zaman said that MQM that was considered being the party of the educated people forced the workers to keep away from the education and made them illiterate.
The workers were made traitors and labelled RAW agents while he and Muhammad Raza decided to join PSP on the basis of mutual consensus, he added.
Speaking on the occasion, Mustafa Kamal welcomed new party members and said that MQM chief Altaf Hussain in the last workers meeting has asked the workers to keep their cellular phones off and conceal the details of meeting but despite this attempt all the information regarding the meeting is with us.
Hurdling allegations against MQM Convener Nadeem Nusrat, he said 20,000 people affiliated with MQM were killed and out of those 10,000 were killed on the orders of Nadeem Nusrat and Altaf Hussain behest. None of the workers joined the party to become terrorists but MQM forced them to convent into RAW agents and target killers, he said ,adding, that workers were used like tissues papers
PSP leader further said that Nadeem Nusrat formed teams on the direction of MQM chief and were murdered as the team fulfilled the given assignment. I am ready to follow MQM chief if he comes to country to lead party, he added.
