'This has always been a purpose of the MQM-L that terrorism is spread in Karachi so there is no doubt that it is a constant effort of theirs to once again plant feet in Karachi.' The CTD has registered a case against Haider under Sections 11-H and 11-N of Anti-Terrorism Act of Pakistan pertaining to terror financing, DIG Hamid said.

вЂњThese new targeted killing teams were being patronised by Kehkashan Haider,вЂќ he said. The interrogations revealed that targeted killing teams had been re-established under directions of the MQM-L chief. He refused to share any further details about the targets, citing 'concerns about their safety'.ДIG Hamid said details of the alleged plot to target these personalities were uncovered by the CTD and the Pakistan Rangers after interrogation of recently arrested alleged hitmen affiliated with the MQM-L from Karachi and other parts of Sindh. вЂњThe MQM-LвЂ™s Coordination Committee member, Kehkashan Haider, has established target killer groups in collaboration with IndiaвЂ™s RAW and anti-Pakistan Sindhi and Baloch groups to target law enforcement agencies, police and political and religious leaders in Pakistan, particularly in Karachi,вЂќ Hamid said.Д¬olonel Shabbir said their targets had been individuals whose deaths held potential for creating sectarian strife in the city while DIG Hamid added that other targets were politicians of the city. According to DIG Hamid, she has been based in Texas since the 1990s and has remained a close aide of MQM founder Altaf Hussain. In the video, she provides details of the payments to be made to the hitman and arrangements for his security and transport while adding that he would be flown abroad after the successful kill.ДIG Hamid and Col Shabbir then identified the woman as a US-based MQM-L activist, Kehkashan Haider. She told the individual to 'send his love' to the target and demanded confirmation of the assassination attempt, adding that 'our life depends on it.' A United States-based female activist of Muttahida Qaumi Movement-London (MQM-L) is allegedly planning assassinations to trigger sectarian violence and chaos in Karachi, officials said on Thursday.Д¬ounter Terrorism Department (CTD) Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Omar Shahid Hamid and Colonel Shabbir from Rangers held a press conference in Karachi during which they showed journalists a video in which a woman is seen giving instructions to an unidentified target killer and promising payment upon successful completion of the assassination.
