He lived a life of piety.
Mr Altaf Hussain further added that late Ba’ch Khan was not only termed as a traitor by the British during their Raj but also by their agent and co-opt Pakistani Establishment after the creation of Pakistan. He said on 8 August 1986, in a public rally at Nishtar Park he had publicly said that the allegations of treason leveled against Khan Abdul Ghaffar and Saeen G.M. Syed was baseless and without foundation which is on record in the newspapers. He further added that these personalities were not traitors but their crime was only that they did not trade their souls, conscience and not compromised against their beliefs and philosophies, as a result they were termed as traitors.
