Begum Kulsoom Nawaz, wife of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, is currently at her son Hasan Nawaz’s home after undergoing a successful throat cancer surgery last week, Geo News reported on Monday.
According to the channel, Begum Kulsoom is expected to receive chemotherapy treatment starting this week. It said that doctors will decide this week when she may be able to return to Pakistan.
Meanwhile, Sharif, who went to London to tend to his ailing wife last week, is likely to return to Pakistan by September 10.
Kulsoom underwent medical checkup in London last month where she was diagnosed with throat cancer.
Maryam Nawaz — her daughter — later confirmed on Twitter that her mother was diagnosed with lymphoma, the cancer of the lymph nodes.
Kulsoom left for London unexpectedly on August 17 for medical checkup – on the day when her nomination papers for the NA-120 constituency were accepted.
During Kulsoom’s absence, Maryam is running her by-election campaign.
The seat fell vacant after the Supreme Court on July 28 disqualified Nawaz in the Panama Papers case for concealing his salary from a Dubai-based company that he claims he never received.
