Speaking at a Khatm-i-Nabuwwat Conference in Peshawar on Wednesday and campaigning for the NA-4 seat at the same time, the emir of the Jamaat-i-Islami (JI), Sirajul Haq, criticised his opponents in the upcoming NA-4 by-poll for not praying at Mumtaz Qadri's funeral as he did.
Qadri, a former commando of Punjab police’s Elite Force, was sentenced to death by an Anti-Terrorism Court in October 2011 for assassinating former Punjab governor Salman Taseer in Islamabad’s Kohsar Market.
Qadri said he had killed Taseer over the politician's opposition to Pakistan's blasphemy laws.
"As emir of the JI, I have taken it upon myself to ensure that his [Qadri's] four-year-old son gets an education," Haq said on Wednesday.
