KARACHI: Maritime Affairs Minister Faisal Subzwari Wednesday condemned the killing of three MQM workers and said that the "bodies of the deceased who were kidnapped from Karachi were recovered from different parts of Sindh".

Speaking during a press conference with other party leaders, Subzwari said that the bodies have been found over a period of two days. "Irfan Basarat's body was found yesterday in Sanghar, Abid Abbasi's body was found in Nawabshah, while Wasim Raju's dead body was recovered from Mirpurkhas," he added.  The MQM-P senator said such incidents had been "going on since 1992 whether MQM-P was in government or not," adding that "the three activists were kidnapped and then subjected to enforced disappearances."

Subzwari, during the conference, said that these bodies have raised a question mark on the credibility of federal and provincial governments. "Our bodies will be found only because we speak Urdu." While demanding an investigation into the three incidents, he questioned if the "Constitution of Pakistan became silent when it comes to the issues of MQM-P workers."
