Ralegan Siddhi, Maharashtra, Sept 6: Upping the ante in the context of the cash-for-votes scam, Anna Hazare today made a strange demand--Hang any MP or MLA found indulging in such practice.
"If any candidate takes or gives money in Vidhan Sabha or Parliament for asking questions or voting, such people should be given severe punishment, in fact according to me, they should be hanged," Hazare said, intensifying his offensive against corruption.
Hazare made these remarks shortly after high-profile politician Amar Singh was arrested and lodged in Tihar Jail in a sensational twist in the 2008 cash-for-vote scam.
