Nepal prince suffers massive heart attack
Nepal's heir to the embattled throne, Crown Prince Paras, suffered a serious heart attack on Thursday but was out of danger, doctors said.
The 36-year-old known for his wild lifestyle was rushed to hospital in the Nepalese capital earlier in the day after complaining of chest pains.
"The crown prince has had a major heart attack," Bharat Rawat, one of the doctors treating Paras, told reporters.
"He is out of danger now, but we can't say if he will have another heart attack."
The prince -- who has a reputation for being a fast-driving playboy -- would "need to change his diet and lifestyle," he said.
Paras will remain in hospital for around five days, the doctor said at Kathmandu's Norwic hospital where the prince was being treated.
