Lahore/Islamabad, October 6

As the date of return of former Pakistan PM Nawaz Sharif drew closer, a medical report on his health on Friday showed that he still had “some residual anginal symptoms” which would require “frequent follow-up investigations” in London and Pakistan.

Nawaz, 73, is expected to return to Pakistan on October 21 after about four years of self-imposed exile in London where he has been living since November 2019 when he went there for medical treatment.

A medical report signed by Professor Carlo Di Mario, a consultant cardiologist at the Royal Brompton and Harefield Hospitals, was submitted in the Lahore High Court on Friday. Mario said that he had previously followed Nawaz throughout his stay in London. The development comes ahead of Sharif’s planned return to Pakistan, which, according to Shehbaz, is on October 21.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
