All the arrangements were finalized, but at the eleventh hour the PTI government played a trick and did not remove its name from the ECL, &quot;said a source. <em>Dawn<\/em>. He recalled that the government said Friday that the removal of Nawaz&#39;s name from ECL was just a formality.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;We wonder that, despite the guarantees of Prime Minister Imran Khan and his advisor Naeemul Haq and the positive statements of Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Nawaz Sharif&#39;s name could not be removed from the ECL, which shows that there must be some problem somewhere in this regard, &quot;he said. he said, requesting anonymity. <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The supreme patient of PML-N will not be able to go to London before Monday <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cMr. Nawaz is in an extremely critical medical condition, which worsens with each passing moment, since his platelets do not stabilize. He needs to be prepared to travel through powerful steroids, and this dichotomy in government statements and actions is only making things worse, &quot;the source said, adding that this delay was&quot; extremely dangerous &quot;for him, since every hour was important.  <\/p>\n<p>&quot;Who will be blamed if complications arise from such impediments to your trip,&quot; he said.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>&quot;Spending the money&quot;<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>&quot;It seemed that both NAB and the interior ministry acted consciously, passed the money to each other and made no decision,&quot; said an official. <\/p>\n<p>NAB requested a medical report on Mr. Nawaz&#39;s health to make the decision to allow him to travel abroad or not. <\/p>\n<p>A senior NAB official, who declined to be named, told Dawn that the anti-graft guard dog had written to the interior ministry, in response to the ministry&#39;s letter, that the office required a media report. from Sharif to determine the &quot;severity.&quot; of your health. &quot; <\/p>\n<p>&quot;Yesterday we received a letter from the Ministry of Interior requesting the consent of NAB to remove Nawaz Sharif&#39;s name from the ECL,&quot; he said. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;In our response, we have asked the ministry to present the medical report of Nawaz Sharif as mentioned in the [ministry\u2019s] letter, &quot;he added. He said NAB would make a decision once he received the medical report. <\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, an Interior Ministry official said that the personnel in question remained in the ministry even though Saturday was a weekly holiday and waited for NAB&#39;s response. <\/p>\n<p>The ministry hoped that NAB had no objections to the request of the president of PML-N, Shahbaz Sharif, who seeks to eliminate Nawaz&#39;s name from the ECL. However, NAB requested the medical report.            <\/p>\n<p>On Friday, Mr. Nawaz, convicted in Al-Azizia&#39;s corruption case, was initially allowed to travel abroad to seek medical treatment, while his daughter Maryam Nawaz, who is on bail in the Chaudhry Sugar Mills case, He has to remain in the country until further orders, according to a decision made by Prime Minister Khan.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              <\/p>\n<p>The letter from the Ministry of Interior to the NAB said that Nawaz Sharif&#39;s health reports, received from Sharif Medical City Lahore, had been sent to a medical board for their opinion and review. &quot;Now this matter will be addressed on Monday,&quot; the official said. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;The ministry has taken all necessary measures taking into account the urgency of the matter as Shahbaz Sharif claimed in his request and will refer the matter to the competent authority in view of the facts and after consulting all interested parties,&quot; he added. <\/p>\n<p>The Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Information, Firdous Ashiq Awan, was not available to comment on the matter. However, a member of the federal cabinet told Dawn that the government seemed to be caught in a trap situation.  <\/p>\n<p>&quot;The government wants NAB to share part of the permission granted to Nawaz to travel abroad, but the retired NAB president, Judge Javed Iqbal, seems cautious,&quot; he said.    <\/p>\n<p>When asked if Prime Minister Khan had changed his mind due to the echo of the agreement (NRO) of almost all sectors, the minister said: &quot;This is not the case.&quot;  <\/p>\n<p>When asked if Maulana Fazlur Rehman&#39;s prolonged sitting had anything to do with it or if there were differences between the prime minister and the establishment over Nawaz&#39;s departure, he said he was not sure.       <\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Minister of Railways, Sheikh Rashid, said that two political parties have taken the seat of Maulana Fazl. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am telling you clearly that two parties (PML-N and PPP) have benefited from sitting. And for Maulana sahib, I can only pray, \u201dhe said while answering a journalist&#39;s questions on Saturday. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;The government has treated the case of Nawaz Sharif for humanitarian reasons considering his deteriorated health. I pray with all my heart for his health and all that Imran Khan has done to allow him to go abroad to receive medical treatment is the need for time &quot;He added. <\/p>\n<p>The minister predicted that soon the cases against the PPP leader, Asif Ali Zardari, would be closed one by one on the basis of a plea agreement.  <\/p>\n<p><em>Khalid Hasnain de Lahore also contributed to this report.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Posted in Dawn, November 10, 2019<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/pre>\n<\/pre>\n<p>Source: https:\/\/www.dawn.com\/news\/1515889\/bureaucratic-impediments-delay-nawazs-departure<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LAHORE \/ ISLAMABAD: In a dramatic turn of events, the government delayed the removal of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif&#39;s name from the air exclusion list on Saturday, forcing a change in his plan to go to London to receive treatment on Sunday.
