MQM received funding from Govt of India!! - BBC

[GURU DUTT]

Blasphemy remove this logical comment at once

why sir why is it to ask "masoomna sawal"here

 

[Bilal.]

Sir

Can you just confirm if BBC and other British media reports are considered sacrosanct in Pakistan?

If so then should I post here large number of British Media reports alleging Pakistan hand in terrorism in India and then would you accept them too?

Would you then condemn and punish those that have been alleged by British Media to resort to terrorism?

It's not the report that is important as much as the base of the report. Purportedly, a couple of the senior MQM leaders admitted it to scotland yard when being interrogated for money laundering.

Anybody or any party found guilty of colluding with our mortal enemy and working against the state must be skinned alive.

Here are reports by Guardian and BBC quoting your former Presidents (not some unnamed MQM leaders) who admit that Pakistan is sponsering terrorism

Pakistani president Asif Zardari admits creating terrorist groups - Telegraph

Musharraf admits Kashmir militants trained in Pakistan - BBC News

Now why the double standards?

Let me re-iterate these are your head of states not some unnamed regional party functionaries

[SamantK]

Last time foreign minister said he will submit proof of RAW's involvement to US but what happened is not a single mention of this in the joint statement.. Hahahaha

Acha? Then when is India and MQM going to file a suit against BBC. Let us know when they do. It will be an easy way to get millions of dollors from bbc for free. Kay nahi?

Pakistan's MQM 'received Indian funding'
By Owen Bennett-JonesBBC News

• 10 minutes ago
  
• From the sectionAsia

The MQM has a loyal support base among the Mohajir community
Officials in Pakistan's MQM party have told the UK authorities they received Indian government funds, the BBC learnt from an authoritative Pakistani source.

UK authorities investigating the MQM for alleged money laundering also found a list of weapons in an MQM property.

A Pakistani official has told the BBC that India has trained hundreds of MQM militants over the last 10 years.

The Indian authorities described the claims as "completely baseless". The MQM said it was not going to comment.

With 24 members in the National Assembly, the Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) has long been a dominant force in the politics of Pakistan's largest city, Karachi.

British authorities held formal recorded interviews with senior MQM officials who told them the party was receiving Indian funding, the BBC was told.

Meanwhile a Pakistani official has told the BBC that India has trained hundreds of MQM militants in explosives, weapons and sabotage over the last 10 years in camps in north and north-east India.

Before 2005-2006 the training was given to a small number of mid-ranking members of the MQM, the official said.

More recently greater numbers of more junior party members have been trained.

The arrest of Altaf Hussain prompted unrest in Karachi
The claims follow the statement of a senior Karachi police officer that two arrested MQM militants said they had been trained in India. In April Rao Anwar gave details of how the two men went to India via Thailand to be trained by the Indian intelligence agency RAW.

In response MQM leader Altaf Hussain issued a tirade of abuse at Rao Anwar.

Asked about the claims of Indian funding and training of the MQM, the Indian High Commission in London said: "Shortcomings of governance cannot be rationalised by blaming neighbours."

The UK authorities started investigating the MQM in 2010 when a senior party leader, Imran Farooq, was stabbed to death outside his home in north London.

In the course of those inquiries the police found around £500,000 ($787,350) in the MQM's London offices and in the home of MQM leader Altaf Hussain. That prompted a second investigation into possible money laundering.

Who is Altaf Hussain?

• Born in Karachi in 1953 to a middle-class family; studied pharmacy at university.

• Formed MQM party in 1984 to represent Mohajirs - descendants of Urdu-speaking Muslims who migrated from India to Pakistan.

• Requested political asylum in UK in 1992, later gained British citizenship; continues to run MQM from north London.

Pakistan's powerful but absent politician

In the course of the inquiries the UK authorities found a list itemising weapons, including mortars, grenades and bomb-making equipment in an MQM property, according to Pakistani media reports that the BBC believes to be credible. The list included prices for the weapons. Asked about the list, the MQM made no response.

As the UK police investigations have progressed, the British judiciary has been taking an increasingly tough line on the MQM. Back in 2011 a British judge adjudicating an asylum appeal case found that "the MQM has killed over 200 police officers who have stood up against them in Karachi".

Last year another British judge hearing another such case found: "There is overwhelming objective evidence that the MQM for decades had been using violence."

The MQM is also under pressure in Pakistan. In March the country's security forces raided the party's Karachi headquarters. They claimed to have found a significant number of weapons there. The MQM said they were planted.

The MQM has the ability to put thousands of protesters on the streets of Karachi
The party has a solid support base made up of the Mohajirs, or refugees who left India at the time of partition so that they could settle in Pakistan.

The Mohajirs complain that they have been the subject of sustained discrimination in Pakistan. The MQM insists it is a peaceful, secular party representing the interests of the middle classes in Pakistan.

As well as its electoral base, the MQM has formidable street power. When it orders a strike the streets empty and the whole of Karachi grinds to a halt.

Altaf Husain has lived in self-imposed exile in the UK for more than 20 years. He was given a British passport in 2002. For many years the party has been accused of using violence to impose its will in Karachi.

A number of MQM officials, including Altaf Hussain, have been arrested in relation to the money-laundering case but no-one has been charged. The party insists that all its funds are legitimate and that most of them come from donors in the business community in Karachi.

India has long accused Pakistani officials of involvement in sponsoring militant attacks in India. Delhi, for example, has demanded that Pakistan take firmer action against those suspected of plotting and managing the Mumbai attacks of 2008.

The latest developments in the MQM case suggest that Pakistan will now counter such complaints with demands that India stop sponsoring violent forces in Karachi.
