LONDON: The London police have launched an investigation into allegations levelled by Tasneem Haider Shah, who claimed to be a spokesperson of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), against party supremo Nawaz Sharif, ARY News reported on Monday.

According to details, the London police have launched an investigation into Tasneem Haider Shah’s allegations and have recorded the statement of a self-proclaimed PML-N spokesperson.
