ATC issues non-bailable arrest warrant for Altaf Hussain
KARACHI: A non-bailable arrest warrant was issued for Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain by an Anti Terrorism Court (ATC) here on Wednesday.

The warrant has been issued for August 20 after a charge sheet was presented by the investigating officer of Civil Lines police station.

The charge sheet states that during Geo News’ programme Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath, Altaf Hussain threatened Rangers personnel which lead to panic and fear among people.

The charge sheet further states that attempts to arrest the MQM chief were futile as he was residing abroad.
