Speaking during ARY News show “Off The Record”, Amir Liaquat questioned MQM’s recent announcement of disowning party chief’s statements and maintained that the party should not have only dissociated itself from the anti-Pakistan statement but also the person.
“How can they keep supporting a person who urges them to raise Pakistan Murdabad (death to Pakistan) slogans and burns Pakistani flag,” said Liaquat who bid farewell to MQM and politics on August 23 citing the same reason.
Altaf Hussain will be responsible for my death
Liaquat also claimed that he is receiving death threats through SMS and phone calls after leaving MQM and announced that if he is killed, MQM London and Altaf Hussain will be responsible.
My only wish is to get buried in Pakistan flag,” said Amir Liaquat while responding to a question.
He requested the MQM’s on-panel leader, Khawaja Izharul Hassan, not to call him a “MQM martyr” after his death as his “life and death are only for Pakistan”.
