PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif will return to Pakistan on Sunday morning after remaining in the United Kingdom for over four months, his party announced on Saturday.
Shehbaz, who is the Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly, decided to return to the country “in view of the situation of the spread of coronavirus”, PML-N spokesperson Marriyum Aurangzeb said in a statement.
The PML-N president had left for London in November last year along with PML-N supremo and his older brother Nawaz Sharif, who was allowed to travel abroad by the government and courts to seek medical treatment.
Aurangzeb said although Nawaz was scheduled to undergo surgery next week, Shehbaz “decided that his presence among the [Pakistani] people was more important”.
