Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP) leader Mustafa Kamal on Friday announced that former MQM-P lawmaker Salman Mujahid Baloch would be joining his party, DawnNews reported.

The MNA was expelled from the MQM-P in October for violation of party discipline after he spilled the beans on the party's internal rifts by confirming the existence of two groups within the MQM-P.

He said the Amir Khan group comprised Faisal Sabzwari, Khawaja Izhar and others, whereas Kamran Tessori, Kanwar Naveed Jameel and Khawaja Sohail Mansoor were in Sattar’s camp.
