What a guy.
But he hasn’t announced a date, yet.
Nawaz Sharif suffers two setsbacks. One, NAB conviction. Two, Shehbaz Sharif press conference. Its hard to tell which one is more damaging.

Still can’t get over the fact that Nawaz Sharif is the first person to go to jail for using the wrong font.

NAB sources claimed, "The accountability bureau has been issued directives to arrest Nawaz and Maryam from the airport after they return to the country." This conviction is in connection to the Avenfield properties, one of three filed by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) last year.
Following the conviction, the Election Commission of Pakistan stated that Sharif's daughter Maryam's name would be removed from the ballot papers of the NA-127 constituency.
