Authorities Thursday first delayed by three days and later by a month the hanging of a political activist convicted of murder, as a video of him emerged claiming his party chief had ordered him to carry out killings.</div>

He was due to be hanged on Thursday but a stay was ordered, just as a video was circulated showing Mirza making striking allegations against the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) — the main party in <span class="highlight">Pakistan</span>‘s violent economic hub of Karachi, of which he was an activist.</div>

The MQM maintains a strong grip on power in Karachi under the leadership of Altaf Hussain who has been in self-imposed exile in London since 1992.</div>

The MQM, which is dominated by ethnic Muhajirs who migrated from India at the time of partition in 1947, presents itself as a liberal, secular force, but opponents accuse it of operating as a criminal enterprise.</div>

Its hold on power in Karachi has weakened in recent years and senior members of the party have told AFP that it has fallen out of favour with the country’s powerful military establishment, who wish to see it cut down to size.</div>
