Clamours on social media for lifting ban on Altaf Hussain

Pakistani Twitteratis started a hashtag ‘LifeBanOnAltafHussain’ to oppose the LHC order against Mr. Hussain. The MQM chief got himself into hot water after his criticism on Pakistan armed forces.

Some Twitter users even went on to the length to question ‘rationale’ of the verdict, arguing why the radicals and leaders of banned outfits were not collared for their remarks against the army.

Here are the tweets emerging in support of Mr. Altaf Hussain.

A fundamental pillar of democracy is freedom of speech and LHC’s decision directly goes against it #LiftBanOnAltafHussain #FreeSpeech

Order of ban on #MQM Quaid Altaf Hussain by LHC is against fair trial. Dr. Farooq Sattar. #LiftBanOnAltafHussain pic.twitter.com/w3Ma55fgrx

LHC decision is against Article 10A, which ensures the delivery of Natural Justice & Freedom of Speech. #LiftBanOnAltafHussain

— Imbisat Mallick (@imbimallick) September 7, 2015

As this interim order by LHC is fanciful, arbitrary, and doesn’t fulfil Natural Justice, it can be challenged. #iStandWithAltafHussain
