Hope Sattar won’t challenge ruling

Author: Muzammil Ferozi

KARACHI: Following the removal of Dr Farooq Sattar as the convener of Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) by the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Monday, Amir Khan, senior deputy convener, said that no one had ever wanted to create division within the party.

“Now all workers and supporters are not supposed to have any confusion,” said Amir Khan while chairing a meeting of the party at its Bahadurabad office.

Meanwhile, Faisal Subzwari Monday expressed hope that Dr Farooq Sattar would not challenge the ECP’s decision to remove him as the party’s convener.

While talking to the media in Karachi, Subzwari said that the party had wanted to resolve internal conflicts before the Election Commission of Pakistan’s (ECP) decision. “However, Sattar had insisted to wait for the regulatory body’s verdict on the party convenership case.”
