Unidentified men forcibly entered the office of Hassan Nawaz, son of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, in London with an intention of what PML-N claims attacking the latter.
A group of four men with three wearing masks and hoodies while trying to enter the building said that they had an appointment with the former Pakistani premier.
A video released to the media show PML-N leaders including Hassan Nawaz and Nasir Butt can be seen engaging in arguments with the unknown persons, as they were reluctant to disclose their identity.
The four men came in a car, bearing registration number RE58NCJ. A complaint has been lodged with the London police to investigate the matter.
PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif in a tweet said, “Strongly condemn cowardly attempt to barge into the office of Hussain Nawaz where Mian Nawaz Sharif was also present. They seemed to be armed and clearly had a sinister design but thankfully, could not succeed. London police must investigate the incident from all angles”.
