"Kurdish rebel chief suffers heart spasm in prison, 'in stable condition'
Ankara, Feb. 7 (AP): Imprisoned Kurdish rebel chief Abdullah Ocalan, suffered a mild heart spasm, but he was in stable condition, a Turkish official said on Tuesday.
Ocalan had been suffering from heart problems, said the official, who was speaking on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the media. The official said Ocalan's heart problems largely stemmed from him being overweight."
