Pakistan has enacted a new law that paves the way for the return of former
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. The legislation, approved by the Pakistani
government, allows individuals who have been declared absconders by the
courts to avail themselves of the opportunity to return to the country.
Nawaz Sharif, who currently resides in the United Kingdom, had been
convicted in corruption cases and subsequently left Pakistan for medical
treatment. The new law has triggered discussions regarding the implications
for the country’s political landscape and the potential impact of Sharif’s
return on the dynamics of Pakistani politics.
