Punjab Home Department expresses reservations over Nawaz Sharif's second medical report.
LAHORE (Dunya News) – The Punjab Home Department Wednesday opposed extension in former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s bail while expressing concerns over his second medical report.
According to sources, the home department has forwarded the report to the health department for examination. It has been learnt that the home department decided in today’s meeting to not declare the erstwhile premier’s report valid until it is verified by a medical board.
The health department will formulate the medical board to examine the report which will then be submitted to the provincial cabinet along with recommendations of the board.
On the other hand, Nawaz Sharif’s personal physician Dr. Adnan Khan took to Twitter and shared the latest medical report of the former PM, dated January 13, 2020, notarized, attested and authenticated under seal by the Notary Public, Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO-UK) and High Commission for Pakistan, London, UK.
Dr. Adnan Khan told that the scans and investigations are legally authenticated too.

It is pertinent here to mention that the home department had received a second medical report of Nawaz Sharif hours after Punjab government raised objections over the first report attached to an appeal of former premier to extend his bail period in the light of the Islamabad High Court’s (IHC) decision.
The medical report was sent by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leader Atta Tarrar which stated that the former prime minister is still unwell.
