Former cricket star Imran Khan has been elected prime minister of Pakistan in a vote at the country’s National Assembly.
His PTI party won the most seats in July’s elections – setting up Mr Khan to become PM with the help of small parties, more than two decades after he first entered politics.
He will be sworn in on Saturday.
Mr Khan, 65, will inherit a country with a mounting economic crisis and he has vowed to create a “new Pakistan”.
