Anwar was a senior leader of MQM London, who was sacked from the MQM rabita committee in 2015, due to his continued illness, which led him to remain absent from crucial meetings.
As being reported, he was nominated in several cases including the Imran Farooq murder case.
Anwar was also probed in a money laundering case by the London Metropolitan Police.
