KARACHI, May 14: Leader of the Opposition in the Sindh Assembly Nisar Ahmed Khuhro has dismissed all explanations given by the MQM leadership regarding its role in the May 12 violence in Karachi as ‘unacceptable’.

In a statement issued here on Monday, Mr Khuhro maintained that whatever the MQM had done on that day added the darkest chapter in the history of the national politics.

He noted that certain portions of Sharea Faisal falling in the route of the chief justice’s caravan had been selected for setting up ‘hideouts’ to carry out terrorist attacks.

Mr Khuhro asked the rulers to tell the masses that who was in command of the law-enforcement agencies on May 12 and whether they had been ordered not to take action against the attackers. — Staff Reporter
