During his stay in the police station, the MQM chief was interrogated and his statement was recorded by officers from the London Metropolitan Police in the money laundering case.

Four days after his arrest, the MQM chief was released. Later, he was granted two bail extensions ─ the first in July 2014 and the second on December 3, 2014.
