#3 Pakistan opposition leader Nawaz Sharif has defied an apparent house arrest order to head for a protest in Lahore.

Describing the order - denied by the government - as "illegal" he left his Lahore home urging people to join him.

Police fired tear gas at the stone-throwing protesters who plan to march to Islamabad to demand judges sacked by the former government be reinstated.

But Mr Sharif's car was allowed to drive through a police cordon as it approached the rally in central Lahore.

The Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) leader later set off in a convoy of vehicles to join the protest "long march" to Islamabad.

"It's now a matter of the future of Pakistani nation and coming generations," Mr Sharif told the Geo TV news channel by telephone from his bullet-proof car, reported Reuters news agency. "How can we abandon our mission halfway?"
