KARACHI: Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP) Chairman Mustafa Kamal alleged that Muttahida Quami Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) workers have been appointed as presiding officers in NA-245 by-elections. “Our workers are being unjustly arrested, while MQM workers have appointed as presiding officers,” he alleged while speaking to media.

“PPP did this work on request of MQM, but their honeymoon is till November,” he added. He said PPP withdrew its candidate in favour of MQM after seeing its declining popularity “Efforts are being made to win election by tying our hands and feet. Sindh government and MQM are worried,” he claimed. Kamal said that their party activists were arrested during election campaign and all tactics were used to keep them away from polls. He said their party Vice Chairman was kidnapped in Orangi Town while police also raided houses of their workers and arrested them without warrant.
