We’re still in the dark as to what his actual condition is. Access to official reports still awaited,” she had written on twitter. Nawaz Sharif has been imprisoned at Kot Lakhpat jail since December 2018 following his conviction in a corruption reference in line with the Supreme Court’s July 2017 verdict.
