Nawaz Sharif’s departure to London ‘deferred’

PML-N President and former three-time prime minister Nawaz Sharif has decided to postpone his departure for London for medical check-up, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Wednesday.

Reliable sources confided to the TV channel that Nawaz Sharif’s departure is deferred as the incumbent government is likely to introduce much-awaited constitutional amendments package in the parliament next week.

As soon as these constitutional amendments will be passed by the parliament, he will depart for London immediately.

Sources further revealed that Nawaz’s departure for London was apparently linked with the passage of these constitutional amendments from the parliament.

Earlier, Nawaz Sharif was likely to depart for London from October 3-5. He already booked his seat with a foreign airline.

Nawaz Sharif will stay in London for medical check-up and after spending some days in United Kingdom he will leave for USA, the sources concluded as saying.
