The anti Zardari leader of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), Zulfiqar Mirza, earlier today demanded that he and his family be provided enhanced security in the wake of imminent threats.
Speaking to reporters at Sindh High Court (SHC), he claimed that Sindh government has withdrawn his security on behest of the (mainstream)PPP leadership.
Mirza has filed an application in the court seeking more security for him and wife – former Speaker National Assembly Fahmida Mirza.
“Other interior ministers, Waseem Akhter and Rauf Siddiqui were provided police squads for adequate security… More than 250 policemen are deployed for security of Fariyal Talpur (Asif Ali Zardari’s sister), but it’s only me whose security is withdrawn by Sindh government,” he alleged.
The disgruntled PPP leader, who is again in media limelight for his fresh disclosures about party leadership, described the political party as clique of ‘thugs’ and ‘looters’ but nevertheless he asserted that he would remain part of it.
