Conspiracy being hatched to spoil Karachi’s peace: Manzoor Wassan

KARACHI: Pakistan Peoples Party leader Manzoor Wassan here on Monday said that a conspiracy was being hatched to sabotage prevailing peaceful environment in Karachi.

Talking to journalists, Manzoor Wassan predicted that soon a crackdown would be started against Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-Pakistan). He further said that references would be launched against the leadership of MQM-Pakistan during the crackdown.

The former interior minister Sindh said that MQM had divided into five groups and added that soon seven more groups would emerge in the party.

Manzoor Wassan said that MQM-Pakistan’s statement about division of Sindh came after PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari raised voice for rights of provinces. He said that some forces were compelling MQM-Pakistan to issue statements about division of Sindh.

Earlier, Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) on April 13 had demanded Prime Minister Imran Khan to intervene in Sindh to rescue the province in the aftermath of 18th Amendment.

Convener of MQM-P Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui while addressing a press conference along with other core party members, hadcriticized that, “There are two (2) Sindhs, only an official announcement is due.”

Owing to the biased approach of the ruling Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), Siddiqui had explained that Sindh had already been divided “with the implementation of quota system and by stripping the Muhajir community off of their properties under the pretext of nationalisation,”
