JAKARTA, Indonesia - Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono says the country's former dictator Suharto is in critical condition. He says dozens of doctors were called upon to help treat Suharto, who was hospitalized Friday for heart and kidney problems. A team of presidential doctors says Suharto's condition worsened overnight and he needs a second pacemaker and will likely undergo dialysis.
The 86-year-old brutally ruled Indonesia for more than three decades until being toppled by a pro-democracy uprising in 1998.
He has been in and out of hospitals in recent years for strokes and intestinal bleeding.
He was readmitted to Jakarta's Pertamina Hospital after falling ill at home several days earlier. Doctors had said his condition was not life-threatening.
