PM Imran 'respects' SC decision regarding Nawaz Sharif's bail

Share
The premier was informed about the apex court's decision during a meeting of the federal cabinet, to which he replied, "We had already directed that Nawaz Sharif be provided with all medical facilities."
"The courts and institutions in the country are independent," the premier commented and added that he was praying for Nawaz's health.
Earlier today, the top court granted Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz supreme leader, bail for six weeks to obtain medical treatment but within the country.
A three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Asif Saeed Khosa heard the former premier's petition against a verdict by the Islamabad High Court (IHC) which had denied bail to the politician on medical grounds in the Al-Azizia corruption reference.
Announcing a short verdict, Justice Khosa directed that the politician will not be allowed to leave the country. The bench directed that Nawaz's bail can be extended.
If needed, the high court can be approached for an extension in the bail term, the court stated.
