After the Lahore High Court allowed him to travel abroad for treatment, former Prime Minister of Pakistan Nawaz Sharif will leave for London on Tuesday by an air ambulance. A two-member bench of the Lahore High Court yesterday announced the verdict on Nawaz Sharif's plea challenging the Imran Khan government's condition of furnishing an indemnity bond for the removal of his name from the no-fly list.

After a marathon hearing of more than six hours, the court allowed him to travel abroad for four weeks and said that the duration can be extended further on the recommendations of his doctors. Nawaz Sharif had recently secured eight weeks' bail on medical grounds from the Islamabad High Court in the Al-Azizia Mills corruption case in which he was serving seven years imprisonment. He also got bail from the Lahore High Court in the money laundering case.
