LONDON: Pakistan Muslim League-N leader Nawaz Sharif went to the British Foreign Office on Wednesday to meet British Foreign Secretary David Miliband.

Finance Minister Ishaq Dar accompanied Mr Sharif during the almost one- and-a-half-hour meeting which a PML-N spokesperson says was held at the invitation of the British Foreign Office.

Meanwhile, according to PML-N sources, Asif Zardari and Rehman Malik are arriving here on Thursday morning for last-minute consultations with Mr Sharif on the judges’ issue before giving final touches to the package that would facilitate reinstatement of deposed judges.
