ISLAMABAD: Federal Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry said on Sunday that former prime minister Nawaz Sharif has the option of plea bargain.

While addressing a press conference, the federal minister said that Nawaz doesn’t want to get treatment for his cardiac issue from Pakistan.

He said that the Punjab government has taken extra-ordinary measures for the former prime minister’s treatment.

Fawad Chaudhry said that all the cases against the Sharifs are from the tenures of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and Pakistan People’s Party.

Earlier, this month Maryam had shared that her father Nawaz Sharif's condition was life-threatening and that he has had four angina attacks.

The former prime minister has been imprisoned at Kot Lakhpat jail since December 2018 following his conviction in a corruption reference in line with the Supreme Court’s July 2017 verdict.
