Lahore, Nov 8 (TIWN) PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz on Friday said that she cannot accompany her ailing father, former Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif for his treatment abroad as her passport was with the Lahore High Court.

Following an appearance before an accountability court in Lahore regarding the Chaudhry Sugar Mills (CSM) case, Maryam said that her uncle, PML-N president Shehbaz Sharif, had been managing the issue of taking the former premier abroad.

"I obviously can't travel immediately because the court has my passport," she said, referring to the Lahore High Court's (LHC) directive for her to surrender her passport in order to secure her release on bail in the CSM case.

A Sharif family source on Thursday told Dawn that Nawaz had agreed to go to London.
