Lahore: PML-N Vice President and former Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s daughter Maryam Nawaz has been admitted at the Services Hospital here.
According to a document issued by the Services Hospital Lahore Accident and Emergency Services, Maryam was admitted at 10.03 p.m. in VVIP II, reports Dawn news.
The same night she met her father at the hospital, sources within the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) said.
The development had come after a letter was sent by the opposition Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) to the Punjab Home Department asking for special permission to be granted.
“It is already in your knowledge that Sharif is unwell and has been shifted to Services Hospital for treatment. His daughter Maryam Nawaz Sharif is an undertrial prisoner at Kot Lakhpat Jail Lahore. She has not been able to inquire about the health of her father. It is requested that special permission be granted to (her) to visit her ailing father to inquire about his health,” the letter said.
Earlier in the day, a request seeking permission to visit Sharif had been rejected by an accountability court in Lahore.
