ISLAMABAD – Maryam Nawaz, daughter of ousted prime minister Nawaz Sharif has applied for a 10-year extension in her visit visa to Britain, Geo News reported here on Thursday.
Maryam, along with her husband Captain (r) Safdar, arrived at a courier company office in Islamabad and submitted her passport and relevant documents to apply for the UK visa.
Passports and documents of two personal servants were also submitted for their six-month visit visa, according to the private TV channel.
The former prime minister and his daughter had through their counsel sought an exemption for a week from March 26 contending that they have to leave for London where Begum Kulsoom Nawaz has been undergoing treatment for cancer.
The medical report of Kulsoom Nawaz was also attached to the application.
The application was turned down after National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor Afzal Qureshi vehemently opposed it saying the accused should not be allowed to leave the country as the trial was about to conclude.
