Not allowing Maryam Nawaz to go abroad upholds law: Babar Awan

ISLAMABAD: Babar Awan, a legal wizard associated with the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), said on Monday the government’s decision to not allow the PML-N vice president Maryam Nawaz to go abroad upholds the law.Speaking to media, Babar Awan said the PTI didn’t play politics over former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s health. He said when opposition leaders reach London, their illness goes away. He said he expected of the leadership of political parties to tell truth to the court.

The PTI leader ruled out any in-house change, saying this is not possible. About the Special Court verdict in former military ruler Pervez Musharraf’s treason case, Babar Awan said the government would tackle the matter as per the law and the Constitution. He said the government would approach the court in Musharraf case if it deems fit.
