Special Transmiison on Altaf hussain arrested in lodon Wasim baddami - Kashif Abbasi ,Mubashar Lucman The leader of Pakistan's MQM party, Altaf Hussain, has been arrested in London on suspicion of money laundering. The development has raised concern of violent backlash in his home base of Karachi. Scotland Yard confirmed that a 60 year old British-Pakistani man was arrested on suspicion of money laundering. The arrest took place this morning at a North West London property where police had earlier recovered £250,000. In a statement Scotland Yard said officers were at present searching the address and they were not ready to discuss any further details at this stage. The BBC quoting Altaf Hussain's party reported that the MQM leader had been arrested in London. According to Geo News London correspondent Muratza Ali Shah, the MQM chief has been taken to the central London police station and Scotland Yard said it would announce its decision to either charge or release him on bail after the questioning is overS. Police would not confirm Hussain's arrest on Tuesday, saying only a 60-year-old man had been detained at his residence in north London. British police do not name suspects until they are charged. However, a spokesman from MQM head quarters in London confirmed the party leader had been taken into custody. Hussain heads the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, or MQM, one of Pakistan's major political parties which has its powerbase in the restive city of Karachi. He is wanted in his home country in relation to a murder case and remains one of Pakistan's most divisive and controversial figures. Hussain has lived in self-imposed exile in Britain since 1992, but regularly addresses large gatherings in Pakistan by telephone and is known for his rousing speeches. News of the arrest aired on Pakistani television shocked Karachi, the country's most-populous city and economic hub. Residents closed businesses, rushed to stock up on groceries and fled home fearing prolonged riots. The Karachi Stock Exchange, meanwhile, lost more than 400 points immediately following the news. Karachi police increased security in the diplomatic neighborhood of the upmarket Clifton area, particularly around the British embassy, which closed temporarily. "We have tightened the security of the consulates, especially of the British," said city police chief Ghulam Qadir Thebo. The MQM was formed in 1984 and is supported by millions of Muslim Urdu-speaking people whose families migrated from India to Pakistan when the country was created in 1947. The party represents itself as a moderate, secular voice in the country's politics. Hussain's residence was raided by British police in 2012 and 2013 on suspicion of money laundering. dr/msh (AFP, AP, Reuters) Click Subscribe Button For Daily Update SubScribe For talk Shows :http://goo.gl/bz2MZb Follow on Google Plus :http://google.com/+JadootvTalkShows Subscribe Dramas Channel :http://goo.gl/7GkoIC Visit our Site :http://goo.gl/WDpPZq 2nd june 2014 We Upload Daily Talk Shows 40-50 Video Full Talk Shows Dnt Forget To SubScribe Visit our Site for Daily update Visit: http://goo.gl/EuBq3k SubScribe Please For Daily Talk Shows: http://goo.gl/eHexrK We Upload these Talk Show Below Monday To Friday Daily 2 june 2014 Kal tak with Javed Chaudary on Express Bolta Pakistan on Aaj news Capital Talk on Geo News Off the Record on Ary News Ab Tak On Ary News 11th Hour With Wasim Badami Kharra Sach with Mubashir Lucman Aaj Kamran Khan Ke Saath on Geo Geo News 9pm Bulletin Daily on the front With Kamran Shahid Nuqta e Nazar on Dunya News Top Story to the Point on Express News Tonight With Jasmeen on Abb Tak 8pm with Fareeha on waqt News jurm Bolta hai on Ary news Criminals Most Wanted Faisla awam ka News eye on Dawn News A Morning With Farah and Below Talk Show We Update friday to Sunday Khabar Naak on Geo News Hasb e Haal on Dunya news Full Fun With Azizi Aapas ki Baat with najam Seethi Sawal Yeh Hai with Dr Danish Sar e AAm full Crime Show on with Iqrar -ul-Hassan the Debate With Zaid Hamid on Din News live With Dr Shahid Masood on Jaag Tv Live With Talat on AAj News Tuc Lighter Side of Life With Maira Khan Pakistan idol On Geo Tv Inaam Ghar on Geo Tv Tonight With Moeed Pirzada Dnt Forget To SubScribe Click Link To SubScribe me http://goo.gl/eHexrK 30 May 2014 31 May 2014 3 june 2014 1st june 2014 2nd june 2014 4 june 2014 Altaf hussain arrested in london Altaf hussain arrested in london 3 june 2014 Altaf Hussain arrested Today in lodon 3 june 2014 Special Transmiison on Altaf hussain arrested in lodon Wasim baddami - Kashif Abbasi ,Mubashar Lucman Special Transmiison on Altaf hussain arrested in lodon Wasim baddami - Kashif Abbasi ,Mubashar Lucman
