I have heard from many people that Altaf Hussain, in 1978, was arrested for burning the Pakistani flag infront of Quaid’s tomb. Is this true? Because I can’t find any articles about it on the internet.
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
Was this before or after he was driving his cab and was receiving money from Zia to start MQM and planning on Jinnahpur and designing his torture cells?
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
^ MQM was born out of terrorism… is a violent cult… and thrives on fostering hatred.
Verkaaik, O.: Migrants and Militants: Fun and Urban Violence in Pakistan.
If you believe that MQM is anything other than a violent mafia, read the above book to get some insights from a neutral academic. An excerpt:
*
"**Fun was a boundary marker, which set the MQM apart from the established political parties, condemned for their grave, solemn, hollow, ideological language. *Fun was even, to some extent, considered a feature of Muhajirness, part of the metropolitan, cosmopolitan Muhajir culture and a far cry from the supposedly rural dullness of other ethnic groups. Yet at the same time the MQM was also deadly serious to its followers. It evoked Islamic and nationalist traditions of martyrdom and sacrifice in the face of state persecution and tyranny. It revived a diasporic identity of Muhajirs as persecuted people throughout history in search of a homeland. Many young Muhajirs were willing to become full-time militant activists willing to kill and risk death, exile, torture, and long-term jail sentences for their political convictions."

hawwww haiii

You yourself say that it is nothing but hearsay for you, and then you want confirmation from people based on hearsay again?
If you can't find articles on internet then how do you suppose people to prove it?
Is this the kind of confirmation you are looking for?
If that is the kind of confirmations you wanted by starting a thread based on hearsay then you got it. But for me, hearsay is immoral and unIslamic.

We have already seen the proof as picture...plus there are many newspapers that did publish this news...check and request them for old archives. Altaf did burn Pakistani Flag and millions witnessed it!
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
You have seen the proof of atlaf hussain burning the pakistani flag in a picture and millions witnessed it? Post that picture and proof or admit your continuing lies.
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
I have personal experience of MQM terrorism and a lot of first hand experiences from my friends and family.

[note] Everyone please discuss the issue instead of posting who did what videos. There is video gallery for the videos.[/note]
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
well yes altaf had did many anti pakistan speeches and was involved in large scale army official's killings in karachi in those days and he talked about liberation of sindh and to make a sindhudesh. he is definitly a traitor
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
khuda hi hai jo isko samjhae
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
“Sindhudesh” is term used by other nationalist party. I don’t believe MQM killed “large scale” army officials, they did kill many police officials. MQM did rough up one army major (or was it colonel?) and the result was Karachi operation of 1992.
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
Thanks.
This is an excerpt from the official PPP website:
"Isn’t it true that you were quite close to General Zia who helped you in your early career?
Zia was so close to me that in 1997, during his martial law regime he arrested me and put me behind bars. His summary military court sentenced me to nine months of rigorous imprisonment and five lashes a day! You can judge how much we loved each other!** ALTAF WAS SENTENCED FOR BURNING THE PAKISTAN FLAG IN THE SEVENTIES UNDER ZIA. AFTER THAT HE CRUMBLED BEFORE THE ZIA ELEMENTS AND STARTED TO WORK FOR THEM. THE CREATION OF MQM UNDER ALTAF BY ZIA’S MILITARY LOYALISTS WAS DISCLOSED BY FORMER CHIEF MINISTER GHOUS ALI SHAH. IT WAS DURING SHAH’S TENURE IN 1986 THAT ZIA DECIDED TO CREATE MQM TO OFFSET THE POPULARITY OF BENAZIR BHUTTO WHO LIVES IN MULTI ETHNIC KARACHI AND WHOM KARACHITES CONSIDER THEIR OWN. "**
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
LOL at PPP propaganda. They should also mention that courts under Zia hanged some guy named Zulfi Bhutto.
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
Oh yeah, I forgot he was from MQM. I guess that source may not be very aunthentic.
Thanks for pointing it out.
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
Thanks for missing the point. Courts under Zia did many things and if their judgments are taken as truth, then what can I say.
Re: Did Altaf Hussain Burn The Pakistani Flag?
He is the biggest threat facing Pakistan. Even Talibans are not that screwed up.

No problem - it is totally irrelevant to the discussion-at-hand. Move Zia to another thread; this one is about whether Altaf really burned the flag or not.
