London 17 January 2001
Yesterday, on 16 January 2001, at around 2 p.m. (Pakistan Time),
the Haqiqi terrorists under the protection of Intelligence
Agencies kidnapped Mohammad Kashif Farooq son of Mohammad Umer
Farooq and took him to their torture cell. Mohammad Kashif Farooq
was brutally tortured and then shot dead from point blank range.
At around 7 p.m. (Pakistan Time), the Haqiqi Terrorists dumped
his dead body at Bilal Colony in Korangi, Karachi, Pakistan.

Mohammad Kashif Farooq 18, son of Mohammad Umer
Farooq was a resident of House No 923, Sector E-33, Korangi No 2-1/2,
Karachi, Pakistan. He was the brother of MQM worker Asif of Unit
71, Sector Korangi.
It is strongly apprehended that Mohammad Kashif Farooq was
kidnapped because of his relation with Asif, who is a very active
worker of Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM).
Despite the fact that the brutal murder of Mohammad Kashif Farooq
has been committed by the Haqiqi terrorists, no action has been
taken so far to apprehend the culprits, which further strengthens
the fact that these Haqiqi terrorists are operating under the
full protection and patronage of the intelligence agencies of the
country.
MQM Central Coordination Committee tried their best to establish
contact with the local administration including the Commissioner
Police, Inspector General Police, Senior Superintendent Police,
Deputy Superintendent Police of the concerned locality. However,
none of them was available to listen to the plight of the brutal
murder of Mohammad Kashif Umer Farooq.
Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) is the third largest political
party of Pakistan and the second largest in the province of Sindh.
Since the commencement of the Army Operation on 19 June 1992,
against the MQM, more than 15000 MQM leaders, workers and
supporters have been extra-judicially murdered, thousands are
languishing in prison on false and fabricated charges, dozens
have been awarded death sentences, more than 28 workers are
reported missing after being unlawfully arrested, thousands of
families have been displaced from their homes and thousands of
workers and supporters have been forced to leave the country and
are living in exile.
