KARACHI: (Dunya News) – Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) leader Rasheed Godil has on Friday said that he is not thinking of leaving the party and the claim by former MQM MNA Nabeel Gabol in this regard is completely baseless, reported Dunya News.

In an interview to a private TV channel on August 8, 2015, Nabeel Gabol, who had left MQM earlier this year, had said that Rasheed Godil was not happy with the leadership since he had been removed from his post as the Parliamentary Leader of MQM. He went on to claim that Rasheed Godil and several other leaders of MQM were receiving threats from the same place. He said that all the MQM leaders had been receiving all these threats from the same person who had been threatening him as well.
