ISLAMABAD: Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif and his daughter Maryam Nawaz were given exemption from appearing in the Accountability Court which is hearing corruption references against them.
Nawaz, on request of Khawaja Haris, was granted a one-week exemption from appearing in the hearings as he and his daughter are currently in London due to his wife Kulsoom Nawaz’s ailing health.
The former PM was allowed to take a break from the corruption references and allowed to travel to London on the orders of the Supreme Court. Nawaz and his daughter Maryam Nawaz — also fighting corruption references — were scheduled to return back to Pakistan after Eid.
However, Kulsoom, the former first lady, suffered a cardiac arrest on Thursday and was placed on ventilator, following which, Nawaz decided to postpone his return.
