JI’s Hafiz Naeem rails against MQM-P

Published February 15, 2024

Speaking at a press conference in Karachi, JI leader Hafiz Naeem has alleged that the Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) did not secure a majority at “a single polling station from 5,500” in the metropolis.

Whoever has “imposed” this party in the city has tried to “promote terrorism”, he said while referring to MQM. He added that this was not in the country’s benefit.

“This is against the people. This goes against the Constitution of Pakistan,” he said.

“The way this democratic process has been crushed, this should stop,” he stated. He demanded that all election results from Karachi be annulled.
