The attorney-general for Pakistan (AGP) has written a letter to the Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Shehbaz Sharif to bring back PML-N Supremo Nawaz Sharif to Pakistan.

According to the details, the AGP has instructed Shahbaz to submit Nawaz’s medical reports within the next 10 days; in case he fails to do so, a contempt of court petition will be filed against Shahbaz.

On November 16, 2019, the Lahore High Court (LHC) allowed Nawaz Sharif to go abroad for medical treatment, the letter read, mentioning that according to the doctors' instructions, Nawaz was allowed to leave for four weeks.

The AGP also mentioned that according to media reports, Nawaz is in good health, while when he was leaving the country, his condition was described as critical.
