KARACHI: Chief of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), Altaf Hussain, on Monday said that there might be a delay of a day or two in the ‘political drone attack’, DawnNews reported.

He added that one or two tools were needed to launch the so-called political drone attack.

The required tools would be available in a day or two, the MQM chief said, adding that as per the announcement, everything was ready for the attack.

Early on Sunday, Hussain had asked the nation to be ready for a ‘political drone attack’ from him in the two to three days’ time.

Speaking to members of the party’s Rabita (coordination) Committee via telephone from London, he stated that the announcement, which he referred as a ‘drone strike’, would be unanswerable.

“No one in the country will be able to respond to my drone attack,” he said.

The MQM chief appealed to the public to wait for his move and mentally prepare themselves.
