New Delhi: Cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan has said that the Pakistani government cannot resist the impending public movement to reinstate sacked judges.

Imran, Chairman of Tehrik-i-Insaaf, said Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf doesn't want to reinstate the judiciary because he's scared of a death sentence.

"There is no way the government will be able to resist this movement - led by the lawyers, but it is a public movement. The civil society is behind it, the human rights organisations, the NGOs, almost all the political parties who are for democracy are behind this movement, but I think this is just the beginning," Imran told CNN.

Lawyers and opponents of President Musharraf held a rally in Karachi on Monday and started a protest march called 'Long March' against the President for restoration of sacked judges.

Pakistan's new government is yet to reinstate Pakistani Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry and about 60 other judges who were sacked by President Musharraf on November 3, 2007.
