Pakistan cricket legend Imran Khan warned that the South Asian nation was heading "towards chaos" and called for President Pervez Musharraf to quit following Benazir Bhutto's assassination. "General Musharraf's time is up. He should step down as there's no end to terrorism in Pakistan," Khan, who leads Pakistan's marginal Tehreek-e-Insaf party, told reporters in India's financial capital. "Pakistan is going towards chaos. Musharraf kept saying he will crush terrorismt today terrorism is crushing us," Khan added. Khan called for the setting up of a consensus caretaker government and a judicial probe into the assassination of two-time premier Bhutto. Pakistan's main opposition leader was killed in a gun-and-suicide bomb attack Thursday ahead of scheduled January 8 elections. "The upcoming elections in Pakistan are all a sham. (After Bhutto's death) who will now hold political rallies? Who knows what happens next in Pakistan?" asked Khan, who was on a private visit to Mumbai.
