LAHORE, Pakistan (AP) — Prominent Pakistani politician Imran Khan is expected to make a full recovery despite fracturing three vertebrae and a rib in a dramatic fall at a political rally, his doctor said Wednesday.

Khan, a former cricket legend whose party is a leading contender in this week’s national elections, toppled about 5 meters (15 feet) off a forklift Tuesday that was raising him and three guards to stage at a rally in the eastern city of Lahore. The dramatic footage was broadcast repeatedly on local TV.
