Anti-State, anti-social and conniving elements are once again
conspiring to confront the Mohajirs and Pakhtoons- Altaf Hussain

London – 16^th December 2006

MQM Founder & Leader Mr Altaf Hussain has stated that anti-State, anti-social and conniving elements are once again conspiring to confront the Mohajirs and Pakhtoons of Karachi against each other. He paid huge tributes to the peaceful Pakhtoons and Mohajirs, particularly the office bearers and members of MQM Punjabi Pakhtoon Organising Committee (PPOC); and all the MQM workers who have defeated this conspiracy through their vision, unity and persistent efforts for peace and exercising constraint. He was speaking to the office bearers and members of MQM PPOC yesterday and Nine Zero. He reminded that such conspiracies have been hatched in the past as well to confront the Pakhtoons and Mohajirs against each other resulting in destruction and loss to the poor and middleclass Pakhtoons and Mohajirs, whereas the conniving elements prospered. However, as a result of the joint efforts of myself and Late Khan Abdul Wali Khan with the cooperation of Mohajir and Pakhtoon communities all conspiracies were defeated and the Pakhtoon-Mohajir continued to live together peacefully and with harmony. However, once again the same anti-Sate, anti-social and conniving elements are conspiring to flare up Pakhtoon-Mohajir riots. Under this conspiracy recent incidents of violence were organised in Karachi. Mr Hussain instructed the office bearers and members of MQM PPOC to contact the public specially the Pakhtoons and apprise them of the conspiracy and to advise them that we should not only understand this conspiracy but also defeat it through our vision and unity; maintain the harmony because Allah’s blessings are showered on those who live in harmony and peace. In the end he appealed to the peaceful Pakhtoons and Mohajirs to maintain unity amongst their rank and file; identify the anti-State, anti-social and conniving elements and defeat their heinous conspiracies through vision and unity.
