As the rate of crime in Karachi peaked during the holy month of Ramadan, MuttahidaQaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) Tuesday warned that it would leave the federal government if action is not taken to protect citizens of the port city.
The party’s leader, Senator Faisal Subzwari, said the MQM-P would leave the federal government if the killing of Karachi’s citizens continued amid increasing street crimes.The politician questioned the Pakistan Peoples Party’s 15-year-long rule in the province, stating that the demands for an operation would have come forward if such killings were happening elsewhere.
“If our people continue to be killed, we will leave the government,” he said, speaking with journalists in Karachi.Karachi has been gripped by street crimes claiming the lives of dozens of citizens who have fallen victim at the hands of criminals for the past few weeks.
