On Friday, Lahore High Court (LHC) allowed Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President and Opposition Leader in National Assembly (NA) Shehbaz Sharif to go abroad.
Justice Ali Baqir Najfi announced the ruling on the former Punjab chief minister’s petition seeking exclusion of his name from the blacklist.
The court allowed the opposition leader to go abroad for eight weeks.
It is to be noted that Shehbaz Sharif had filed a petition in LHC, stating that he is a cancer survivor and needs to go abroad for treatment, but the federal government had put his name on the blacklist.
The Ministry of Interior, federation and Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) were named as respondents in the plea.
On the other hand, PML-N president Shehbaz Sharif said that the only work of Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan is to ignore the suggestions and demands of opposition parties. No one is ready to trust the premier due to his U-turns, he added.
