LAHORE: Reliable sources have confirmed that both Hassan and Hussain have returned to the country. Both the brothers arrived at the Lahore airport on Tuesday morning. Upon their arrival, Nawaz Sharif warmly welcomed his sons and their families.
The homecoming of Hussain Nawaz and Hassan Nawaz comes amid ongoing court proceedings. Both brothers are due to appear in court in Islamabad on March 14. The return of Nawaz Sharif’s sons is expected to attract considerable attention as it coincides with their scheduled appearance in court.
Their presence in Islamabad is likely to be closely watched by the media and observers, given the legal implications of the ongoing accountability proceedings. On March 7, an Islamabad court held the perpetual arrest warrants of Hassan and Hussain in three National Accountability Bureau (NAB) references.

The court adjourned the arrest warrants until March 14. A lawyer representing the brothers said both Hassan and Hussain Nawaz intended to return to Pakistan and appear in court on March 12. Therefore, they are asking for the suspension of the perpetual warrants to facilitate their appearance in court.
During the hearing, lawyer Qazi Misbah appeared on behalf of the Nawaz brothers while NAB prosecutors Sardar Muzaffar, Usman Masood, and Sohail Arif were present in the court. Justice Nasir Javed Rana presided over the proceedings.
