She asked opposition leaders to refrain from making political mileage over Nawaz's health condition.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan on Thursday said it is not Prime Minister Imran who would decide but the doctors will take decision whether former prime minister and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif would go abroad or not.
Addressing a ceremony in Islamabad on Thursday, she said that the former prime minister’s cholesterol increased due to his diet, adding that the application about release of Nawaz Sharif on health grounds would be decided by the court. The government had implemented the court decisions in the past and would continue to do so, she added.
Dr Firdous said Maryam Nawaz was again sent to the jail as per jail manual as doctors declared that her reports of blood pressure, ECG and vital organs were normal.
The SAPM went on to say that the first gesture of Prime Minister Imran Khan was that Nawaz Sharif should be provided best healthcare from the hospital of his choice and his family should be taken on board about medical treatment.
She asked the opposition leaders to refrain from making political mileage, out of the health condition of Nawaz Sharif.
