Ex-PM Shehbaz Sharif leaves for London to discuss Nawaz’s ‘return’

LAHORE: Former prime minister Shehbaz Sharif on Sunday left for London to meet party supremo, Nawaz Sharif, ARY News reported quoting PML-N sources.

In a post shared on X (formerly known as Twitter), Marriyum Aurangzeb said that the PML-N president will meet party supremo Nawaz Sharif during his stay in London.

The visit comes amid speculation that Nawaz Sharif may be returning to Pakistan soon. However, the party has not yet made any official announcement.
