Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) Chief Altaf Hussain appeared at central police station in London in connection with money laundering case Tuesday.
Hussain was arrested on June 3 last year on suspicion of money laundering. He was subsequently released from police custody in July and his bail was extended again in December until April 14, 2015
The MQM chief was accompanied by a team of lawyers and members of the MQM’s central coordination committee (Rabita Committee), including senior leader Mohammad Anwar and Babar Ghauri.
Media persons were not allowed to speak to the MQM chief.
The MQM chief appeared before investigators at 2pm (PST) in a pre-scheduled appointment for extension in his bail that ends today, MQM said.
Rashid Aslam, a London-based legal expert, told Geo News that Hussain will be interviewed and his bail may or may not extended, depending on the evidence available with the Metropolitan Police.
Aslam further added that “Police looks at every minor piece of evidence before it decides to either charge a suspect or free him. It is possible that police may interview Hussain at the station today and will act further, depending on the evidence and outcome of the interview,”
