Addressing a gathering of protesters to mark a month of Islamabad protests, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan said that the Pakistan government may arrest or torture his party workers but a new Pakistan will be created regardless.

Khan said that the tigers and tigresses are not scared of suicide bombers, reported the Dawn.

He also lashed out at Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif by saying that he does not know the Pakistani nation because he grew up in the "in the nursery of a dictator."

Protesters led by Khan and cleric Tahir-ul-Qadri have been occupying the red zone in Islamabad for a month to demand Sharif's resignation.
