HYDERABAD, Oct 22: PML-N leader Mumtaz Bhutto has said that struggle against the black law of the local government system will continue unless it is repealed.

He was talking to reporters at the hunger strikers’ camp set up by the Sindh Taraqqi-pasand Party (STP) at Nasim Nagar on Monday.

PML-N leaders Saleem Zia and Ayub Shar and STP leader Muzaffar Kalhoro were present on the occasion.

He said invaders had failed to disintegrate Sindh but the government had divided it through the local government system.

Nationalist forces were protecting their motherland and the PML-N was siding with them in the struggle which might take a different shape.

He said that today murderers of Benazir Bhutto and Mir Murtaza Bhutto were being rewarded.

He said Benazir Bhutto had been brought to Pakistan under a conspiracy and assassinated. He also said that it was feared that Begum Nusrat Bhutto had been murdered under mysterious circumstances.

He said that if the rulers had some remorse left in them, they should apologise and withdraw the present local government law, otherwise they would be meeting the fate of dictators.
