Altafs 4th resignation since Jan 2007
KARACHI: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussains announcement of resignation as the party head on Friday was his fourth since January 2007. The last time he announced resignation was in July 2007. On January 5, 2007, Altaf had announced his resignation citing deteriorating health as the reason. According to the MQMs website, he was displeased with the extravagant lifestyle of party leaders. He took back his resignation the same day, after workers pressed him to reconsider his decision. An MQM member said Hussain had also considered resigning in March 2007. He announced resignation again on June 11, 2007, again citing health problems, while addressing a gathering of supporters by telephone. In 2005, he offered to quit six times, for similar reasons.
