‘Nawaz may undergo heart surgery’
50
LAHORE: Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif may undergo a heart surgery if his angioplasty is not possible, said his personal physician Dr Adnan Khan.
Mr Sharif was examined on Monday by the doctors of Aga Khan University at the Sharif Medical City here. They held a detailed consultation and evaluation of Mr Sharif.
After the examination, Dr Khan told reporters that Mr Sharif might undergo a heart surgery if his angioplasty was not possible. He said the former premier had serious heart complications.
“Aga Khan University @AKUGlobal very kindly constituted a high powered team of specialists/experts consisting of Cardiac Interventionist, Vascular Surgeon & Urologist/Nephrologist. They had a detailed consultation & evaluation of former PM #NawazSharif for further management,” Dr Khan later tweeted.
Sharif’s daughter Maryam also tweeted about the health of her father: “Today MNS (Mian Nawaz Sharif) was examined by a team of Aga Khan specialists that included cardiac interventionist, vascular surgeon, urologist & nephrologist who also reviewed his recent investigations & scans. Reports are being compiled. His problems are serious & the drs are concerned.”

Is PM Imran responsible for Nawaz heart surgery? Certainly not because Nawaz has past history of health complications on different counts which has nothing to do with PM Imran whatsoever. Heart surgery is too very common now so nothing to worry about. Undoubtedly the process will be executed through state-of-the-art under the best possible doctors one can think of and inshallah Nawaz will turn healthier after heart surgery. I wish Nawaz all the best, aameen. Iqbal Hadi Zaidi

Heart Surgery in (London) Only. Have a safe flight Mian Nawaz Sharif. After spending time in London please do come back and rule us commoners because those who created PML-N will not let anything happen to it. Long live NRO.

Since coming out on bail, NS has been examined almost on a daily basis. After every examination, his personal physician keeps on saying that his condition is serious. If it is, why are they not doing anything about it?

I keep on reading that Nawaz is corrupt and he has looted money, this might be true or is it just a perception?
In other countries the way corruption cases are established are as follows:
The investigating agency compiles a list of assets and the persons known sources of income, if it is established that the person has more assets than his/her known source of income than the person is asked for the proofs failing which the person is considered guilty and is punished.
I doubt if NAB has done all that, if it would have done all this, the guilty would have been punished and there would have been no possibility of the verdict being challenged in any court of law.

In my view, various options are being pursued for Nawaz Sharif, so that he can go London on medical grounds. If this is granted then he wouldn't come back nor any looted money will be returned. And, after few years, all political drama will start again same as before in 1990's. When will these dramas be dispelled once for all and looted money be recovered from Nawaz Sharif, Shabaz Sharif, Asif Zardari and their family members? (Gharib Awam ki Awaz).

Either he will or he wont. Doctors can decide that quickly using test reports.
All we see is ways to keep him out of jail, and finding a way for him to leave for greener pasture in the land of Queen, whose government allow criminals, dictators to bring their looted money to UK as it increases their economy.

All the characters in PPP and PML-N, who have have been charged by the courts, immediately get sick, taken to hospitals for clicking some photographs on the hospital bed. Then they apply for bail on health grounds, when bail is granted, they are seen busy with their routine lives. Same thing happened with Hanif Abbasi.

In the past both Nawaz Sharif and Asif Zardari have used poor health card and fooled public. Do they think they can do this time as well? I think the public is much wiser now (credit goes to our proactive media) and will not be fooled, as their dirty tactics and corrupt practices have been badly exposed. (Gharib Awam ki Awaz).
