Imran Khan
Pakistani police and several Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) activists keep watch outside the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital in the eastern city of Lahore on May 22, 2013 where Pakistani politician Imran Khan was being treated. Khan left hospital on May 22, two weeks after breaking bones in his back in a fall at an election rally, a hospital spokesman said. The 60-year-old was ordered to remain immobile in bed after he fractured vertebrae and a rib in a dramatic tumble just days before the May 11 general election, where his Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf party made a major breakthrough.

I hold Altaf Hussain directly responsible for the murder as he had openly threatened PTI workers and leaders through public broadcasts ... a targeted act of terror.
I also hold the British government responsible, as I had warned them to act against Altaf Hussain after his open threats to kill P.T.I. workers. Unfortunately, the British government did nothing to stop his calls to violence and killingsMore quotes »
