<b>Pakistan to hang Briton during royal visit </b><!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->ISLAMABAD (AFP) - Pakistan has sparked a row with Britain after saying it would hang a British national during an upcoming visit by        Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall.

British Prime Minister        Tony Blair urged Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf to halt the execution of Mirza Tahir Hussain scheduled on November 1 and warned of "very serious consequences" if it goes ahead.

Musharraf has already ordered three stays of execution for Hussain, 36, who has spent half his life in a Pakistani jail for killing a taxi driver and who at one point had his conviction quashed.

"Mirza Tahir Hussain's new execution date is November 1," an official at Adiala Prison in Rawalpindi, a garrison city adjoining the capital Islamabad, told AFP on condition of anonymity.
