If the killings continued ceaselessly things would get out of control
Deputy Convener Dr. Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui has said that MQM will a stage a peaceful protest on Friday against repression, barbarism and continued extrajudicial murders of its workers.
He urged people to remain composed and calm. He assured that the ‘day of mourning’ would be peaceful. He appealed to traders, businessmen, industrialists, transporters and citizens to support their protest.
Dr. Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui has appealed to Chief Justice of Pakistan to take notice of the brutal killings of MQM workers. He deplored that negotiation was being carried with the people who had challenged the state and sons of the people who founded Pakistan were being killed.
He deplored MQM’s four innocent had been murdered that day. He added that their aggrieved mothers were looking towards Allah. He condemned their extrajudicial murders.
Dr. Khalid Maqbool said that terrorist activities were being carried in Karachi and innocent people were suffering because of terrorism.
He expressed these views while addressing a press conference at Nine Zero. Deputy Convener Nasir Jamal, Dr. Farooq Sattar, Senator Nasreen Jalil, Kanwar Naveed Jameel and other elected representatives and Rabita Committee members were present during the press conference.
“MQM and our people are once again experiencing repression. We have been telling the rulers, law enforcement agencies and human rights organizations that our workers are being kidnapped and killed daily. Despite our repeated appeals their arrests were not shown in the record. We have been receiving dead bodies of our workers. Today, we found the bodies of four workers who were killed and their bodies were dumped on the road. We are worried about our workers who have become victims of enforced disappearance. We have filed petitions for the recovery of our workers. We did not get justice there. No one paid to our applications. People of the city are sad today because of the brutal murders. People have started closing their shops, bazars and transporters have taken their vehicles off the road, “ Dr. Khalid Maqbool said
Dr. Khalid Maqbool has appealed to people of Sindh to support MQM’s ‘Day of Mourning’ by keeping their business closed. He has made an appeal to prime minister, federal interior minister, chief minister and Governor of Sindh to take notice of extrajudicial killings and help in the recovery of detained workers.
