Nawaz Sharif, former prime minister of Pakistan, is believed to return from London next month after Eid, assured by senior PML-N leader
Deposed Pakistan prime minister Nawaz Sharif is expected to return from London next month after Eid, Mian Javed Latif, the senior PML-N leader said, amid a whirlwind of political developments that have embroiled the country following Imran Khan’s ignominious ouster from power.
Latif said a decision on PML-N supremo and the three-time prime minister Sharif’s anticipated return will be discussed with the coalition partners.
All decisions would be first brought up with constituent parties of the coalition, The Express Tribune newspaper quoted him as saying.
Eid will be celebrated in the first week of May.
Several corruption cases had been launched by the government of ex-prime minister Khan against the 72-year-old supremo of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz since his ouster from the office by the Supreme Court in July 2017 in the Panama Papers case.
Sharif in November 2019 left for London after the Lahore High Court granted him a four-week permission allowing him to go abroad for his treatment.
He had given an undertaking to the Lahore High Court to return to Pakistan, citing his record to face the process of law and justice within four weeks or as soon as he is declared healthy and fit to travel by doctors.
