The founder and leader of MQM Mr. Altaf Hussain has condemned the brutal murder of Prof. Saif Uddin Jafri by terrorists in the strongest possible terms. He termed the murder of the professor the persecution of Urdu speaking professionals.
In a statement issued from London Mr. Hussain said, “ In a planned manner sectarian attacks are being carried out to kill Urdu speaking professors, doctors, lawyers and other professionals from the community. The brutal murder of Prof. Saif Uddin Jafri is a part of this heinous conspiracy. The killing of Urdu speaking professionals and other innocent people raise questions on the performance of the government and the administration. People are asking why the government has failed to arrested terrorists and provide protection to the life and property of people.”
Mr. Hussain has demanded that the Prime Minister Nawaz Shareef, Federal Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar, Governor Sindh Dr. Ishrat-ul-Ebad and Chief Minister Sindh Qaim Ali Shah should take notice of the killings of Urdu speaking professionals and provide security to people without discrimination.
He expressed his heartfelt condolences with the bereaved family of Prof. Jafri and prayed for his high places in Jannah.
