MQM's future looks murky, given the recent BBC report on the party's alleged connections with India. It is not just the BBC report written by Benett Jones that has shaken up MQM, Pakistani political leaders are also attempting to contribute to the mess (created thanks largely to MQM itself). Check this one out.
It remains to be seen what becomes of MQM's political future, but one thing is sure, Pakistani government and establishment now seem resolute to take this issue to conclusion.
Things are looking grim for the party that has enjoyed a decade-long share in the government. A recent drive against corruption and terrorism across the country has opened up several issues that the establishment is keen to fix without wasting any more time. There are several reports that talk about the same allegations levelled by the BBC report, but the timing of the allegations are very important. Especially the case of Imran Farooq murder is sensitive not just for Britain but for Pakistan also.
