Lahore:  Leader of the Opposition in Pakistan's National  Assembly, Chaudhry Nisar Ali, has said that he has "solid evidence" about those who  facilitated CIA contractor Raymond Davis' exit from the country.US  national Davis was arrested for killing two Pakistani youths on January  27 in Lahore, igniting a furore in Pakistan over the shootout, and  resulting in a US-Pak diplomatic standoff over his detention.On  March 16- the same day when he was indicted for double murder- Davis was  freed and quickly flown out of Pakistan after the heirs of his two  victims told a local court that they had accepted compensation, bringing  the one and a half month-long saga to an abrupt end. Nisar  claimed in the Lower House of Parliament that he knew who had made  Davis' exit from Pakistan possible, adding that he had had substantial  evidence in this regard."I have been able to collect solid  evidence in the Davis case and I am ready to share it," the Daily Times  quoted Nisar, as saying. However, the opposition leader refused  to share the proof with the government, and instead offered to place it  before the House. He said it was up to the government whether it  would like to discuss this in an open session or an in-camera session  of parliament. Nisar also demanded the government to summon  officials of Pakistani intelligence agencies in a session and ask them  to clear their positions in the Davis issue.
