Former Sussex cricket star Imran Khan is on hunger strike.
Khan started his hunger strike today in the prison where he was sent last week for protesting against emergency rule, according to his spokesman.
He said Khan, who now heads his own opposition party, wanted a restoration of the constitution and reinstatement of judges sacked when President Pervez Musharraf imposed the emergency just over two weeks ago.
Spokesman Saifullah Niazi said: "Imran Khan has gone on hunger strike for an indefinite period."
