I need to have a special arrow symbol: \rightsquigarrow with two arrow heads such as:

\rightsquigarrow ->

and I cannot use tikz as I have a special class.

Maybe you can use trimclip in order to clip the arrow head and join it to the main symbol:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{trimclip}

\DeclareRobustCommand{\twoheadrightsquigarrow}{%
  \rightsquigarrow\joinrel\mathrel{\mathpalette\rsahead\relax}%
}

\newcommand{\rsahead}[2]{%
  \clipbox{{.7\width} 0pt 0pt -1pt}{$#1\rightsquigarrow$}%
}

\begin{document}

$A\twoheadrightsquigarrow B_{\twoheadrightsquigarrow}$

\end{document}

If you want that the new symbol is as wide as the one with a single arrow head, you can do as follows:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{trimclip}

\DeclareRobustCommand{\twoheadrightsquigarrow}{%
  \rightsquigarrow
  \mathrel{\mspace{-6.5mu}}%
  \mathrel{\mathpalette\rsahead\relax}%
  \mathrel{\mspace{6.5mu}}%
}

\newcommand{\rsahead}[2]{%
  \rlap{\clipbox{{.75\width} 0pt 0pt -1pt}{$#1\rightsquigarrow$}}%
}

\begin{document}

$A\twoheadrightsquigarrow B_{\twoheadrightsquigarrow}$

$A\rightsquigarrow B_{\rightsquigarrow}$

\end{document}
