KARACHI: Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) leader Haider Abbas Rizvi said that Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaf (PTI) is engaged in propaganda against his party.

Speaking during a news conference in Karachi, Haider Abbas Rizvi took strong exception to Imran Khan's comments to the media in London.

Rizvi said that Khan had gone to London before and was unsuccessful in his endeavors. He said that politics of accusations will not benefit the PTI.

Earlier on in London, PTI chief Imran Khan said that he holds the United Kingdom responsible for the incidents of May 12 and the murder of Zohra Shahid Hussain.

He said that the UK government failed to prevent an individual from inciting violence in Pakistan.

The MQM has sought the advice of legal experts in London in light of PTI's allegations.
