Jemima turns journalist in Pakistan


As cricket-turned-politician Imran Khan leads a boycott campaign against Monday's elections, much of the media attention in Pakistan has also focused on his former wife Jemima, who has travelled down from London to join him.


Jemima, who has led the protests against President Pervez Musharraf in London and famously described slain PPP leader Benazir Bhutto as a kleptocrat, has kept away from the public gaze in Pakistan.

But donning a new avatar she turned journalist for a day when she met and interviewed Musharraf for British newspaper The Independent.

Imran said Jemima was passionate about the democratic process in Pakistan. Though no longer his wife, she could still play a larger political role.
