In May, the former PM shared a photo on social media with his family drinking tea in a cafe in London, triggering a debate on his health with members of the ruling Pak Tehreek-e-Insaf and there was a request to bring him back to face the cases of corruption. In the photos, he was seen sitting in a cafe by the roadside with his granddaughters. He was wearing a blue shirt and hat and apparently he looked fine. The government came under condemnation when the photographs of Sharif appeared last week, in which he is seen walking on the road, which led to a rapid increase in the demand to recall him from within the ruling party. Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan said that Sharif had said that there was a malfunction in the immune system and his illness was discussed in the cabinet and a decision was taken to send him out for treatment. He said that the court has also seen that if anything happens to Sharif, the government is going to be responsible.
