Islamabad, Sep 14: Pakistan’s caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul Haq Kakar has said that the law enforcement agencies will decide about arresting former premier Nawaz Sharif upon his return to the country from self-imposed exile next month. Kakar made the remarks during an interview with SAMAA TV on Wednesday when asked about any action against 73-year-old Nawaz upon his arrival in Pakistan.
In February 2020, Nawaz was declared an absconder. The same year, an accountability court declared him a proclaimed offender in the Toshakhana vehicles case.
“The law enforcement agencies (LEAs) will decide this matter in light of the law. If they think he (Nawaz) should be chained then they will adopt that path and vice versa,” Kakar said when asked whether Nawaz would be handcuffed or not on his return. He said that the leadership of LEAs would decide the issue of his arrest “to the best of their ability”. (PTI)
