ISLAMABAD: Information Minister Senator Pervaiz Rashid has strongly condemned MQM chief Altaf Hussain for his criticism of Pakistan army, its leadership and national security institutions.
In a statement here on Friday, the Information Minister said national security institutions were working day in and day out to make the country peaceful and the performance of these institutions was praise worthy.
He made it clear that the national security institutions have no political objectives but were arresting criminals who have made lives of the people miserable and insecure. He said unnecessary criticisms of these institutions was equal to backing the outlaws.
The Information Minister said political backing to such outlaws was nothing but support to the criminals. He said cleansing Karachi from the extortionists, kidnappers, target killers was praiseworthy job of the security forces.
Pervaiz Rashid said the accused would be given full chance to clear their position in the courts.
