Kulsoom Nawaz flew to UK early last week to get her medical checkup done.

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Chief of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Wednesday has extended best wishes to ex-prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s wife Kulsoom Nawaz, who has been recently diagnosed with throat cancer.

In a post on social networking website Twitter, Imran Khan prayed for her speedy recovery and win in battle against cancer.

On the other hand, Chief of Army Staff (COAS) also made a telephone call to Muhammad Nawaz Sharif to express his best wishes and prayers for health of Begum Kalsoom Nawaz.

Kulsoom Nawaz, who is all set to contest in NA-120 by-poll on September 17 after her nomination papers were approved by Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), had flown to the United Kingdom (UK) early last week to get her medical checkup done.

Sources privy to the family have reported that ex-premier’s daughter, Maryam Nawaz would lead PML-N’s electioneering in the constituency in her mother’s absence owing to the medical treatment that medics have said would be started at the earliest.

The seat fell vacant after Supreme Court disqualified Nawaz Sharif under Artilce 62 (f) of the Constitution on July 28 in Panama Leaks case.
