LONDON: The Interpol has refused to issue red warrants for the arrest and extradition of Hussain Nawaz Sharif on the application of Pakistani government, dealing a big blow to the international efforts made by the current government against the family of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif. The decision to reject the application against Hussain Nawaz was made by the Interpol’s commission, comprised of five members and headed by its chairperson, during its 10th session. The CNB argued that Hussain Nawaz’s arguments are baseless and aimed at avoiding the prosecution process in Pakistan. It said that Nawaz Sharif was tried through fair process and all obligations were met. The NCB of the UK explained it didn’t have any ongoing proceedings against Hussain Nawaz.
