KARACHI: Muttahida Qaumi Movement Chief Altaf Hussain on Tuesday condemned Imran Khan’s allegations against his party that the latter levelleved during an exclusive interview with Geo News on Monday.

Talking to Geo News, Mr Hussain asked Imran Khan to furnish evidence to corroborate his claims or be ready to face the court.

He said accusing any party of extortion is tantamount to accused it of murder. “Had these allegations against MQM been correct, it wouldn’t have won NA-246 by-election, securing almost 100,000 votes,” Altaf Hussain added.

“I condemn Imran Khan’s false allegations and he must tender apology if he is not able to produce evidence against MQM,” said he.


On Monday, admitting his mistake of terming attendees of Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain’s rallies as “living corpses”, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan said he regrets using the term in anger.

Speaking during an exclusive interview to Geo News, he said he was infuriated over a statement by Altaf Hussain when issued the zinda lashain (living corpses) statement.
