Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif on Wednesday met his younger brother Shehbaz Sharif at the Ministers’ Enclave and discussed different issues, including National Accountability Bureau (NAB) cases against members of the Sharif family and other party leaders.
The meeting that spanned over an hour and a half also deliberated on the arrest of Khawaja brothers by NAB and Hamza Shehbaz’s name put on the no-fly list. Both the leaders condemned the recent NAB actions against PML-N leaders and also discussed the opposition’s course of action in the face of what they called political victimization of the opponents. The former prime minister instructed his younger brother and the party president to take all opposition parties in the Lower House along.
Earlier in the day, an accountability court extended the transit remand of Shehbaz Sharif till the conclusion of the current session of the National Assembly.
