ISLAMABAD: The names of former prime minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif and his daughter Maryam Nawaz have reportedly been placed on the Exit Control List (ECL) a day after the newly-inducted federal cabinet made the decision.
After placement of their names on the ECL, there would be a bar on the duo to travel abroad. Sources familiar with the matter informed the Geo News that the imprisoned PML-N leaders were put on the ECL early Tuesday.
Nawaz and Maryam are currently serving their terms in the Adiala Jail. The former premierwas sentenced to a total of 11 years in prison, while his daughter was given eight-year sentence in a corruption reference in July. The duo were also slapped with hefty fines while Maryam’s husband Captain (retd) Safdar was sentenced to a year in prison.
The decision to place Nawaz and Maryam on the ECL was taken in a meeting of the federal cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Imran Khan on Monday, Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry had said.
