LAHORE: Arrangements to discharge former prime minister Nawaz Sharif from the Services Hospital have been finalized, ARY News reported on Wednesday.
The PML-N supremo is reluctant to be shifted to the jail, while interior ministry wanted to shift him to the Punjab Institute of Cardiology (PIC) in light of his medical report.
