The minister, who presided over a meeting of the committee, asked the medical panel to put forth its recommendations within three days’ time. He added the fresh reports of Nawaz Sharif have been received, which are being forwarded to the medical board. Not satisfied with the ‘medical letter’, the Punjab government had a day earlier asked former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to submit a detailed and fresh medical report by Friday so that it could decide whether to allow to extend his stay abroad. If the PML-N leader fails to submit the fresh medical reports by February 21, the competent authority will put forth its report to the provincial government, he added. The minister said that Nawaz Sharif was given eight weeks’ bail for treatment but amazingly his treatment could not be started despite 16 weeks have gone by.
