KARACHI: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) informed on Wednesday that it has not received any letter from British officials pertaining to MQM founder Altaf Hussain?s speeches.

Hussain incited violence in speeches given by him on March 11, 2015, and August 22, 2016.

The FIA also said that such communication takes place through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the agency would have responded if they were approached. 

FIA claimed to have presented many documents against the MQM founder and includes videos and pictures.

The FIA further added that they would only respond if the UK government requests their cooperation. The issue has been stalled due to lack of cooperation from UK officials, FIA added.

Earlier, the Metropolitan police had claimed that they had sent a letter to the Pakistani government requesting their help in investigating the case on August 8, this year. 

Moreover, FIA also claimed that British officials have not written any letter regarding the investigation of Imran Farooq murder case.

On August 24, Scotland Yard had confirmed that it?s ?assessing? the contents of Altaf Hussain?s speech against the state of Pakistan in which he also incited violence against media and the armed forces of Pakistan.

Speaking to Geo News, a spokesman for Scotland Yard confirmed that ?the police are currently assessing the content of a speech given by an individual associated with Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) to ascertain if any crimes have been committed under UK legislation?.

The police had revealed that they are investigating various speeches ? not just one - made by the London-based leader of the MQM who has been accused of using his London office to incite acts of terrorism inside Pakistan. 

Previously, the police had said that they were only investigating one speech, after having dropped the previous investigations into incitement.
