While supporting his petition, advocate Makhdoom Niyaz Inqilabi pleaded that PML-N supremo has been constantly disgracing judiciary and other state institutions on media.

Therefore, a stay order should be issued halting the live broadcast of Nawaz Sharif’s speeches unless the high court issues a verdict in the case.

The petitioner further implored that newspapers should also be barred from publishing the contents of former prime minister’s speeches.

It is pertinent to mention here that Nawaz Sharif, who was in self-imposed exile since 2019, left for London in the middle of his seven-year jail term on medical grounds. The elder Sharif returned to Pakistan on October 21.
