*ISLAMABAD -Maryam NAWAZ Sharif faces a blow from the Accountability Court.*

* A Lahore accountability court has extended Maryam Nawaz’s judicial remandin the Chaudhry Sugar Mills case till November 8.*

Maryam and other PML-N leaders were hoping for bail in the case so shecould be with her ailing father, former premier Nawaz Sharif.

PML-N leaders have called Prime Minister Imran Khan’s directives to ensureher release a ‘drama’. A day earlier, PM Khan ordered the Punjab governmentto facilitate Maryam’s release so that she could be with her father atServices Hospital.

The court adjourned the hearing because of the absence of the investigatingofficer. Speaking to the media inside the court, Maryam said the stress ofher father’s condition was affecting her. More so because her mother passedaway last year under similar circumstances and she wasn’t able to be by herside.

During the hearing she met her son Junaid Safdar in court where he inquiredabout her health.
