Sharif’s medical report

On Tuesday, a fresh medical report of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif was submitted to the Lahore High Court (LHC).

According to the report, a copy of which is available with ARY News, the PML-N supremo’s physician had advised him against travelling back to the country.

“During my recent evaluation, I found Mr. Sharif under a lot of stress, if he returns to Pakistan without undergoing a definitive treatment in London, the stress of living again in a solitary confinement, as well as the loss of a partner, can further compromise his cardiac status before definitive treatment can be rendered,” Dr Fayaz Shawl wrote in the report.
