KARACHI: Former Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) MNA Nabil Gabol has claimed he is receiving death threats from MQM Chief Altaf Hussain.

Gabol has approached the Sindh High Court (SHC) for additional security stating that the threats were received after he left the MQM and made revelations about the party.

Gabol said the government would be held responsible if he was harmed. The federal and provincial governments have been made parties in the petition.

Nabil Gabol had left the MQM earlier this year and had resigned from his National Assembly seat. The former MNA had joined the MQM prior to the 2013 general elections after being sidelined by the PPP.

Meanwhile, MQM Rabita Committee member Qasim Ali said Nabil Gabol was setting the worst example of political juggling for Rangers security. He added that after Gabol had been made a political orphan his allegations were evidence of hypocrisy.

‘You’ll end up like others’

Speaking in Geo News programme “Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Saath” later, Gabol said MQM leader Mohammad Anwar had conveyed Altaf Hussain’s message saying he will be made an example like others.

“Mohammad Anwar telephoned me and said don’t get too excited... otherwise you’ll end up like others,” he said.

Anwar, on the other hand, denies hurling life threats at Gabol.
