Ex-CM Strongly Condemns Altaf Hussain's Inflammatory Speech

SUKKUR, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 24th August, 2016) -- Former Chief Minister Sindh Syed Qaim Ali Shah has said the anti-Pakistan speech of Altaf Hussain is not only strongly condemnable but also regrettable.

Action should be taken against those who had attacked the media houses and also against those who had used derogatory language against the country. While talking to mediamen, here on Wednesday, Shah said attacking media houses was highly condemnable act and mere apologies from MQM leaders were not enough to compensate the loss.

He said there will be no compromise on the solidarity of Pakistan and no one will tolerate anti-Pakistan speeches and slogans.

"It seems that there is a great conspiracy against Pakistan as a few days back there was a terrorist attack in Quetta and now the speech of Altaf Hussain as well as recent attacks on media houses" , he added. Syed Qaim Ali Shah further said that terrorism is a countrywide issue and the military has played a key role in Operation Zarb-e-Azb.

Doing day-to-day affairs has become easy due to the military operations. Replying to question, he said the operation in Karachi should continue till complete elimination of terrorism, target killing, street crimes, extortion and other crimes.
