At this, the court accepted the plea and put off further hearing till December 24. Earlier, the Lahore High Court disposed of petition filed by PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz seeking directives for removal of her name from the ECL so that she could fly to London to look after her ailing father Nawaz Sharif. The court directed Maryam to approach the interior ministry first in this connection and disposed of the petition.
