Leader of the Opposition in Pakistan’s National Assembly Raja Riaz Ahmad Khan on 15 May said that former prime minister Imran Khan should have been hanged publicly. He even criticised the courts for granting bail to the former prime minister.
“Imran Khan should have been hanged publicly, but the courts are welcoming him as if he were his son-in-law,” he said in the House.

“If the judges are so happy with this Jewish agent, they should join Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf. They have some vacant seats in the party. Going forth, they should fight elections on PTI’s ticket. In their place, those judges should be brought in who can give justice to the poor,” he added.
Commenting on the incidents of vandalism and arson across Pakistan by the supporters of Imran Khan, Raja Riaz said: “The entire House is ashamed. The whole nation is ashamed.”
To protest against some of the recent rulings of the judiciary, Pakistan’s ruling coalition on Monday staged a demonstration outside the Supreme Court. The opposition claimed the court provided blanket relief to former Prime Minister Imran Khan in a number of cases.
