Sunni Tehreek (actually raid it instead of picking up people nearby their HQ)
They actually raided the office, twice.
Rangers raid Sunni Tehreek office again, confiscate records - The Express Tribune
They also confiscated records - I'm sure the records weren't just lying nearby their HQ.
and you might find something worse than 90 (might not even get no retaliation).
That still doesn't justify what was found in 90. By this logic if weapons are found with the Sunni Tehreek, for example, they can simply say ''go raid the Taliban you will find something worse'' and be absolved of their guilt.
Criminals found are "innocent untilproven guilty", they aren't to be arrested,
They are to be arrested. That's how Law Enforcement works.
Criminals found are "innocent until proven guilty", they aren't to be arrested, presented nowhere and killed and left on the outskirts of the city. They aren't to be subjected to third degree torture while in law enforcement's custody and then told to "drink more water" by the judge when they approach court of law for justice after renal failure. Try upholding the law this way, that might work! Acting as judge, jury and executioner will worsen the situation, as they are doing now, there's an immense increase in the popularity of MQM, its not MQM that won in NA-246, its the operation that won it for them! Leaving the dead bodies of their severely tortured workers was bound to get some sympathy.
Do you have proof for any of these allegations?
MQM's propaganda (as seen here) and ethnic victimization is what won them the NA 246 election.
And the same is true for the political party in question, yes?
The party in question has done everything to try and defend its criminals - even then, I support the MQM's right to exist as a mainstream political party - but for that, they must abandon the criminals, and that may mean abandoning Altaf Hussain.
So when they fake the basis of an entire operation in Karachi, none of the culprits get court martial-ed.
The basis of this current operation is perfectly real.
When they target an entire ethnic group instead of what they came in for, nothing happens.
Since when do the
Sunni Tehreek,
ASWJ,
PPP, PAC, ANP,
the Lyari Gangs,
the Taliban and all the petty criminals in Karachi belong to the same ethnic group as MQM? They don't. Then how exactly is one ethnic group being targeted?
During the 1992 Army operation, the MQM was accused of being anti-Pakistan, besides being alleged of hatching a conspiracy to establish a separatist state by the name of “Jinnahpur”.
Numerous national newspapers and media outlets had reported that Brigadier Asif Haroon of Pakistan Army had called journalists from Punjab after the launch of the 1992 operation and had briefed them about the “Jinnahpur Conspiracy.” As reported by a large section of the national Press about 23 years ago, Brigadier Asif Haroon had stated that the maps of the break-away state “Jinnahpur” and other documents were recovered from the MQM offices. But on October 19, 1992, the same national newspapers had carried an ISPR press release, conveying Army’s denial of the knowledge of the “Jinnahpur” plan.
The ISPR had stated that the Army had no evidence concerning the so-called Jinnahpur plan and newspaper stories in that context were baseless, maintaining that the Army had neither handed over to the government any document or map as reported, nor was it in the possession of any evidence concerning the so-called “Jinnahpur Plan”. The ISPR had clarified that it was also wrong that the matter was discussed at any meeting of the Karachi Corps Commander.
Many years later, on August 24, 2009, some senior army officers, Brigadier (R) Imtiaz Billa and General (R) Naseer Akhtar (pivotal figures behind the 1992 operation in Karachi), had confessed in a television programme that “Jinnahpur” was nothing but a drama against the MQM, adding the military had not found any maps.

According to your source, some rumors were spread in the media, which were
denied by the ISPR.
They clarified their stance and refuted the rumors. They did their job. Asif Haroon should have been investigated and tried, yes. But it didn't happen under those times' leadership. Yes, there should be more accountability in the Army.
Today's leadership is already working to establish it.
But do you realize that
none of what you said in that entire wall of text absolves the MQM of its crimes? None of it. You're trying to undermine the credibility of the Army without actually looking at the evidence they have provided today. There are MQM members involved in serious criminal activity. There were illegal weapons and target killers inside MQM's headquarters.
Nothing you say about the Army or anyone else changes the facts about MQM.
As for the 92 Operation, there was no need for 'Jinnahpur' to justify it. That was just the straw that broke the camel's back.
What nonsense! The people of Karachi saw that during Operation Clean-up when the originally planned operation against dacoits of Sindh later shifted towards MQM on Jinnahpur allegation
I said
'is'. As in, presently. I was not talking about the past.
Do you people never wonder why exactly does the MQM end up getting 'targeted'? And
no, it's not because of their ethnicity. The Army is full of Mohajirs. The Army was led by a Mohajir, Musharraf, for a long time.
The Army has gone through multiple leaderships, so it can't be a personal grudge or personal bias in the leadership.
The MQM hasn't given any reason as to why they think the Army is after them, except for ethnic victimization propaganda.
Therefore, the only logical reason is that the MQM has been involved in activities detrimental to National Security.
