Ghauri asks govt if Mirza has its backing
ISLAMABAD: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) leader Babar Ghauri Wednesday asked the government if Dr. Zulfiqar Mirza enjoyed its backing, Geo News reported.Talking to media men outside the Parliament House, Babar Ghauri said: "We have expressed our concerns during a meeting with the Prime Minister," he said.
"We asked the Prime Minister about the capacity in which Sharjeel Memon, the Provincial Minister, was accompanying Dr. Zulfiqar Mirza - the man who is hurling accusations against MQM."
Babar Ghauri said the Prime Minister, in response, assured of taking a necessary action in the matter.
He said the Supreme Court had prohibited wielding of weapons openly in public but last night during a big public meeting weapons were exhibited with impunity. No action was taken by police or Rangers against them, he regretted.
The MQM leader said that last night Altaf Hussain talked to President Zardari and that it was hoped that the government would take action in the matter.
