Perhaps you do not know, MQM people do take more than Fitra also. And by the way by force collection of fitra is also bhatta. Forcing people to take more than one slip to the tune of 5-10 books of 100 leaves each is also bhatta. Bhatta small or large, is a nuisance which was started by MQM and have been taken to new levels by Amn Committee and Sunni Tehreek. Yes, MQM may be among lowest of the extortionist.
It is not only KMC and police, MQM was very much part of this whole scam when in local government. I have seen merit followed by MQM when they were in local government.
My dear time has gone for blind following. Blind following is only for Allah, rest we better start calling a spade - a spade.

Free hand should be & needs to be given to Intel Agencies to conduct operation in Karachi but this is not happening & MQM who are the main culprits are still roaming freely & doing whatever they want.
PPP is playing their own game, MQM is playing their own game, ANP is playing their own game, so the operation should not only be conducted against one terrorist political party but against these two also who are equaly involved in harming Karachi.
Now lets not forget the corrupt Judiciary who will not punish any terrorist or political terrorists, if this is not happening then there is no point of doing all these operations. DEATH sentence should be & must be given to all political terrorists & terrorists.
