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 told a private news channel that MQM-P leader Farooq Sattar and Amir Khan were heading their separate groups within the MQM.

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.
