Imran Khan, the chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf political party, has been injured after falling from a makeshift stage during a campaign rally in Lahore. The cricketer turned politician fell 14 feet as he was stepping off an improvised fork lift that was raising him to the top of the platform. Local TV station Geo TV aired footage of the accident and showed Khan bleeding and unconscious with a gash on his head. Al Jazeera's Kamal Hyder, reporting from Islamabad, said Khan is currently in a stable condition, and political party members had rushed him to Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital. The hospital, which was set up by Khan himself, has told Al Jazeera that he is safe and they are doing further tests.
