Farooq Sattar says MQM will stage sit-ins everywhere if party workers are not recovered.

KARACHI (Dunya News) - Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) on Thursday held a protest demonstration outside Karachi Press Club against detention and extra-judicial killing of party workers.

Members of the Co-ordination Committee, MNAs, MPAs, office-bearers, and workers of the MQM including the general public belonging to different spheres of life participated in the demonstration.

Addressing the protest rally, MQM leader Dr Farooq Sattar said that bloodshed had become out of control in Karachi.

He said if the law enforcers cannot protect lives of the innocent workers then the MQM should be allowed to deal with the plainclothes people.

The MQM leader said that the present protest rally was just a trailer and the real film would begin if the government ignored it.
Farooq Sattar said that the MQM would organise sit-ins across the country if the government did not take notice of the disappearance of workers. He demanded immediate recovery of the missing workers.

MQM had announced protest demonstrations to highlight the issues of missing workers and alleged extra-judicial killings.
Similar demonstrations will be held across the country on Friday at various press clubs.
