Pakistan's ailing former prime minister Nawaz Sharif will not be taken to the US from London for specialist medical treatment until his platelet count get stabilised, according to a report on Monday.
Sharif, the 69-year-old Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo had left for London on November 19 in an air ambulance to seek medical treatment in London, a month after the three-time premier was released on bail from a seven-year prison sentence in a corruption case.
The PML-N supremo is suffering from multiple health ailments, including an immune system disorder causing low platelet count.
Earlier this month, his family sources said that Sharif will likely fly to the US on December 16 for medical treatment of his ailment there.
However, his son, Hussain Nawaz, told reporters in London that, it will be difficult to take his father to the US until his platelet count get stabilised, The News International reported on Monday
