Former PM Nawaz Sharif lands in big trouble: Report

ISLAMABAD: Former PM Nawaz Sharif lands in big trouble over his denatured to London.

Former PM Nawaz Sharif London flight has been postponed, Media Report has revealed citing government sources. As per media report, federal government and National Accountability Bureau (NAB) are both hesitant to take off Nawaz Sharif's name from the Exit Control List (ECL)

According to sources, instead of taking Nawaz's name off the ECL, NAB has sent a written reply to the interior ministry. The government and NAB, sources claim, are not willing to take the responsibility of taking Nawaz's name off the ECL.

While NAB has opted for delaying tactics, the government is also refraining from using its authority to take Nawaz's name off the list. In the past, the interior ministry has taken off several names from the no-fly list without taking NAB into confidence.

Sources also told Geo News that NAB has asked for Nawaz's medical reports from the government board and Sharif Medical City.

The medical board formed by the government had suggested allowing former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to seek medical treatment abroad.

PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif had filed a request on Friday, urging the government to take Nawaz's name off the ECL.
