Mr Sharif is expected to address a massive homecoming rally in the eastern city of Lahore later.
Pakistan’s former prime minister Nawaz Sharif is returning home on a special flight from Dubai, ending four years of self-imposed exile as he seeks to win the support of voters ahead of parliamentary elections due in January.
He had arrived in the United Arab Emirates on Friday from Saudi Arabia after travelling there last week from London. Mr Sharif has been a fugitive since he failed to appear before a Pakistan court in 2019, when he was allowed to travel abroad by his successor, Imran Khan, to receive medical treatment after he complained of chest pains.Mr Sharif’s main political rival, Mr Khan, was arrested in August after a court convicted and sentenced him to three years in a graft case.
Thursday’s decision by the Islamabad High Court was a major boost for Mr Sharif and his party, which is struggling to counter the popularity of Mr Khan, who was ousted through no-confidence in April 2022 but remains the leading popular opposition political figure despite his conviction and imprisonment.
