LAHORE: Punjab government decided on Saturday to send an emergency ambulance for ousted premier Nawaz Sharif at Kot Lakhpat jail.
In the pursuance of Prime Minister Imran Khan’s directives to provide best medical facilities to the detained leader of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), the Punjab government has designated one emergency ambulance to be stationed at the Lahore jail.
Sources said the ambulance is equipped with all kinds of facilities to deal with any untoward medical situation of incarcerated Sharif.
It is pertinent to note that a day earlier, Maryam Nawaz, daughter of Nawaz Sharif, met his father at the prison and later requested on Twitter, saying, “Since he [Nawaz Sharif] hasn’t agreed to be shifted to the hospital & his heart disease has worsened (according to cardiologists sent by the govt to examine him y’day), I request the jail authorities to establish an immediate resuscitation and life saving unit on Jail premises.”
