Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif's daughter and PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz on Thursday broke her nearly four-month-long silence, saying she was silent for "personal reasons" and asserted that she could not be threatened or intimidated.

Maryam was the fiercest critic of the Imran Khan government, but had been keeping mum since November after given bail in a corruption case, raising speculation that she had struck a deal with the government and the powerful establishment.

Talking to media in Islamabad after meeting former premier Shahid Khaqan Abbasi and other leaders of her Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), Maryam said she could not be threatened or intimidated.
