Maryam Nawaz announces change in plan for return back to Pakistan

LONDON: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Maryam Nawaz on Sunday announced that she and her father, former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, will land in Lahore on their return to Pakistan. Earlier it was reported that duo would land back in Islamabad.

“We will land in Lahore in a few days,” Maryam said while speaking to the media in London.

The former premier’s daughter vowed, “We will lead the struggle for democracy in Pakistan.”

“We will sacrifice for the benefit of the nation and the generations to come,” she said.

“No matter what they do, voters cannot be stopped,” she asserted.

The PML-N supremo's daughter further said, “The movement to 'respect the vote' has reached a decisive phase.”

In a veiled reference to former president General (retd) Pervez Musharraf, Maryam said, "Some people use back ache as an excuse to flee abroad."

"There are also some leaders who preferred fleeing Pakistan to escape punishment," she further upheld.
