Zulfiqar Mirza resigns from PPP
KARACHI: Senior Pakistan People Party (PPP) leader and Sindh senior minister Dr Zulfiqar Ali Mirza here Sunday announced resignation from his party as well as membership of the Sindh Assembly.
Addressing a crowded press conference at the Karachi Press Club, he expressed serious reservations on the policy of the government about the prevalent law and order situation in Karachi.
He said he would continue to work as an ordinary party worker. He criticized federal interior minister Abdul Rehman Malik and termed him a habitual liar and threat to Pakistan security. He said he had already told his party leadership that Malik could not be relied upon.
Mirza also leveled serious allegations on Muttahida Quami Movement.
He, however, defended the Peoples Amn Committee and torture cells in Lyari. He revealed that the police department was highly corrupt and police stations in Karachi used to be "auctioned" to the highest bidder.
