Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif was born in 25 December 1949 is a Pakistani businessman and politician who served as the prime minister of Pakistan for three non-consecutive terms. Sharif is the longest-serving prime minister of Pakistan having served a total of more than 9 years.
Born into the upper-middle class Sharif family in Lahore, According to the Election Commission of Pakistan, Sharif is the one of the wealthiest men in Pakistan, with an estimated net worth of at least USD $1.6 billion. Most of Sharif’s wealth originates from his businesses in steel construction.
After being ousted in 1993, when president Ghulam Ishaq Khan dissolved the National Assembly, Sharif served as the leader of the opposition to the government of Benazir Bhutto from 1993 to 1996. He returned to premiership after the Pakistan Muslim League (N) (PML-N) was elected in 1997, and served until his removal in 1999 by military takeover and was trailed in a plane hijacking case . After prison and exile for more than a decade, he returned to politics in 2011 and led his party to victory for a third time in 2013.

In 2017, Sharif was removed from office by the Supreme Court of Pakistan regarding revelations from the Panama Papers case. In 2018, the Pakistani Supreme Court disqualified Sharif from holding public office, and he was also sentenced to ten years in prison by an accountability court Sharif is currently in London for medical treatment on expired bail. The IHC declared him an absconder and issued arrest warrants for him in late 2020.

Pakistan’s former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, who is serving a prison sentence for corruption, has left the country to receive medical treatment in London.
Sharif, a three-time prime minister, showed false immune system disorder and other health problems.The Lahore High Court lifted a travel ban.
Imran Khan’s government was reluctant to release Sharif. It wanted the politician – who has so far served less than 12 months of a seven year prison sentence – to sign an indemnity bond worth $44m (£34m) before allowing him to go abroad.
However, the court allowed him to travel without signing the bond.

“The world is mocking us [for] how courts are giving verdicts in Pakistan. It is the first decision in which sentence was announced with doors locked and security officials holding guns inside the court. It’s so-called democracy.”

Graft history
Last year, Pakistan’s Supreme Court expelled Sharif from politics over the allegations, ending his four-year stint as prime minister.
It was not the first time Sharif had been removed from office. He was ousted as prime minister in 1993 on suspicions of corruption. After winning election in 1997, he was removed again after a military coup in 1999 and lived in exile for eight years.

Sharif received a 10-year sentence in July on charges revolving around family property in London.
He was released in September after a court suspended his sentence pending an appeal hearing.
THE United Kingdom government is faced with a difficult choice as it plays sheriff in the battle between People of Pakistan and Nawaz Sharif: should it side with a former prime minister?
Senior officials in Pakistan are using both diplomatic and non-diplomatic avenues to convey their demand to British authorities that Nawaz be sent back. A highly placed source in the UK, who is not authorised to speak on this matter, told Dawn that a top Pakistani official met his British counterpart in October to convey that Nawaz is “no longer a soft issue” between the UK and Pakistan and a failure to deport him could result in strained ties between the countries. It is unclear how the message was received by Downing Street and the Home Office, where the case for Nawaz’s leave to remain will be decided.
Top government officials, too, are urging the UK to take action on this issue. Prime Minister Imran Khan last month said he would contact British Prime Minister Boris Johnson to discuss his deportation and his accountability adviser Shahzad Akbar wrote a letter to Home Secretary Priti Patel on October 5 urging her to deport the former prime minister whom he said is “responsible for pillaging the state”.

All eyes on British Home Office
Separately, there are reports that the Pakistan government has denied flights carrying deportees from the UK allegedly because of the lack of success on the Nawaz issue.
Akbar denied this and told a newspaper the government is seeking the deportation of ex-PM “on principle” but it is not linked to any other bilateral issue between the two countries.

! ………. The British government should pay attention
22 million Pakistanis. We protest to the British government that our worst corrupt former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif should follow the steps taken by the government of Pakistan to extradite his family to Pakistan who were protected by the British government. We, the 22 million people are in debt because of this Caecilian mafia. It is a humanitarian issue. Instead of blaming our Supreme Court, the corrupt Nawaz Sharif, who is involved in a dozen other very serious cases, is not being handed over to the Pakistani government. It shows and reflects the illegitimate interest and tragedy. Intention of the British government which does not suit such a developed and large country otherwise the world will lose credibility with the British government which will be a serious issue for British Government.
