Shehbaz Sharif returns from London

LAHORE: President of Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) Mian Shehbaz Sharif has returned to Pakistan from London on Friday (today).

From Lahore airport, Shehbaz reached his residence in a protocol of six vehicles. Few days back, videos of Shehbaz jaywalking on the roads of London and traveling in public transport went viral on social media where he was severely criticized for having royal lifestyle in his home country.

Former chief minister Punjab flew to London on June 16 to visit his ailing sister-in-law Begum Kulsoom Nawaz who is undergoing cancer treatment in London.

On June 15, Shehbaz took to Twitter to inform about his UK’s visit and requested to pray for Kulsoom’s health.

Leaving for UK shortly to inquire after my Bhabhi's health. She is in ICU and needs your prayers…. Eid Mubarak to all of you … have a great day! -ss

Deposed prime minister and his daughter Maryam Nawaz are still in London with Kulsoom Nawaz. On June 18, the duo was expected to come back from London but they delayed their return owing to critical condition of former first lady of Pakistan.

The accountability court has also granted Nawaz and Maryam an exemption of four days from attending the hearing of corruption cases filed against them by National Accountability Bureau.
