LAHORE: Leader of the Opposition in National Assembly Shahbaz Sharif Thursday approached the Lahore High Court (LHC), challenging placement of his name in a blacklist/no fly list, and seeking a one-time permission to go abroad for medical treatment.
In a petition, filed through advocates Azam Nazir Tarar and Amjad Pervez, he contended that the government previously placed him on the Exit Control List (ECL). However, the LHC had suspended the government orders and given him a one-time permission to travel to the United Kingdom for medical checkup in 2019. Shehbaz, who is on bail in multiple references filed by the National Accountability (NAB), stated that he recently came to know that his name had been placed on the blacklist at the behest of the government. He said the authorities concerned refused to furnish documents to him on the basis of which his name had been placed on the list.
