Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

If a leader of an Islamic state wishes to set an example to people about the importance of salah and severity for not performing salah, he may adopt a position to achieve that which includes appropriate punishment.

And Allah knows best
