Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shehbaz Sharif on Monday asked party workers to accord a warm welcome to former premier Nawaz Sharif and daughter Maryam Nawaz on their return to Pakistan.
Addressing workers while on his way to Nankana Sahib, PMLN President Shehbaz Sharif said that both are returning from London on Friday and urged workers to gather at the airport to receive them. “Nawaz made the country an atomic power,” he said, lamenting that PML-N’s victory will defeat the verdict against Nawaz. Nawaz Sharif on Friday was sentenced to a total of 10 years in prison and slapped a £8 million fine in the Avenfield properties reference while Maryam Nawaz was sentenced to seven years with a £2 million fine.
