Addressing a news conference to announce the development on Wednesday, Minister for Interior Sheikh Rashid said Shahbaz could ask for a review of the decision within 15 days, after which the interior ministry would make a decision within 90 days. He added that the PML-N leader could appear in person, if he so wished, to make the request. Rashid was flanked by Adviser to the Prime Minister on Accountability and Interior Barrister Shahzad Akbar.
