LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shahbaz Sharif was hospitalised on Thursday for a short duration in a Lahore cancer hospital for medical tests, a day after he sought permission from an accountability court to leave a hearing because he was not feeling well.
Shahbaz’s tests were conducted after a check-up at the Institute of Nuclear Medicine and Oncology Lahore (INMOL). After the tests, Shahbaz was discharged from the hospital and taken back to Kotlakhpat Jail. The PML-N leader is a cancer survivor.
According to state media, the opposition leader underwent a positron emission tomography (PET) scan and other tests. His personal physicians were present in the hospital.
