KARACHI:
The country’s top security czar has said the PML-N – the biggest opposition party – will have to pay a price for spewing venom on the armed forces of the country.
“The PPP has a positive approach while the PML-N is creating problems for itself due to its narrative,” Federal Minister for Interior Sheikh Rashid said on Friday while addressing a news conference at the Federal Investigation Agency’s (FIA) zonal office in Sindh’s provincial capital.
According to a report published in October in London-based
Financial Times newspaper, Pakistan also asked the British government to repatriate Nawaz Sharif through a letter that Adviser to the PM on Accountability Mirza Shehzad Akbar wrote to British Home Secretary Priti Patel.
In the letter, Akbar wrote that Sharif “has been responsible for pillaging the state and I trust that you will be supportive of our efforts to bring those responsible for corruption to account”. He added that the home secretary was “duty bound” to deport the former prime minister.
However, some experts believe it will be Nawaz Sharif who will benefit from a decision not to renew his passport. They said even if Nawaz’s passport is not renewed, the British government may give an extension in his visa. They said the UK government has done that in the case of PML-N leader Ishaq Dar.

ISLAMABAD:
The PTI government has decided not to renew former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s passport which is set to expire on February 16 in an apparent attempt to compel the convicted PML-N leader – who has been in London since November 2019 – to return home.
“We have decided to cancel Nawaz Sharif s passport on February 16,” Minister for Interior Sheikh Rashid said on Wednesday when a reporter asked him as to what is going to happen next after PML-N leader Khawaja Asif’s arrest. Rashid, however, did not share any further details.
