Milosevic rushed to hospital

Slobodan Milosevic has been rushed to hospital after suffering chest pains in his cell at Belgrade's Central Prison.

The former Yugoslav president's lawyer, Toma Fila, says he has been transfered to the military hospital in Belgrade.

The transfer comes hours after Milosevic's Socialist Party said that his health had been jeopardised by his imprisonment.

The former president is being held in a specially refurbished cell pending an investigation into corruption and abuse of power charges.
