'Altaf Hussain's bail extension a victory of truth, righteousness'

Talking to media at Karachi airport, Barrister Farogh Naseem said the case formed against the MQM chief had no potential. He further mentioned that neither MQM nor Altaf Hussain had pleaded for an extension in bail, rather the Scotland Yard itself extended the bail by five months.

Naseem stated this clearly shows that MQM and its chief stand with the truth and righteousness, no matter how difficult the circumstances may be.

Earlier, the London Metropolitan Police had extended the bail granted to Altaf Hussain till December, this year, in connection to the money laundering case against him.

The MQM chief was initially granted bail till July 30 and he had to appear for a police interview on July 31; however the decision came almost a day before his due appearance.
