Pakistan's Ministry of Interior says it has written a formal request to London to seek legal action against an ethnic party leader, Altaf Hussain. A ministry statement says the government has sent a dossier on Hussain to U.K. authorities on Tuesday, with allegations of inciting violence and disturbing law and order in Pakistan. Hussain is a British national and the founder of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, or MQM party, which has long dominated politics in the southern city of Karachi. He delivered an anti-government speech last week via telephone to his supporters. Pakistani security forces have arrested dozens of MQM supporters and sealed many of the party's offices.
