ISLAMABAD : Federal Minister for Science and Technology Fawad Chaudhry on Monday demanded of the British government to handover Altaf Hussain and former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to Pakistan.

In his tweet, Fawad Chaudhry stated that Hussain and Nawaz are wanted to Pakistani courts and termed their residence in the UK against fundamental rights.

It may be noted that former prime minister Nawaz Sharif is currently residing in London after getting bail on the medical grounds from the Lahore High Court.

The accountability judge approved the exemption plea of the PML-N supreme leader until Jan 17 on the basis of his medical reports.
