The prime minister will undergo surgery in London and is likely to remain hospitalised for a whole week after the procedure, his family announced on Friday.
Maryam Nawaz Sharif, the prime minister’s daughter, earlier said that her father had had a cardiac procedure – ‘Atrial Fibrillation Ablation’ – in 2011, during which certain complications occurred resulting in heart perforation.
