MARDAN: Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Ali Muhammad Khan on Sunday said that Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) vice president Maryam Nawaz should face the trial of cases by staying in Pakistan, ARY News reported.

He questioned the former Punjab chief minister Shehbaz Sharif for not registering a case against Daily Mail in London. The state minister predicted that it is difficult to see Shehbaz Sharif’s return to the country.
