In his reply, Sharif informed the court that while he was in self-exile in Saudi Arabia, former president general (retd) Parvez Musharraf had refused to renew his passport.
He further stated that he had to go to the United Kingdom for a medical checkup as part of his cancer treatment, however, he had refused to accept the offer of getting a foreign passport.
Sharif prayed to the court that a heavy fine should be imposed on Opposition Leader in Punjab Assembly Raja Riaz, who leveled allegations against him, and that the money should go into charity.
Riaz had alleged that Sharif held dual nationality.
The Punjab chief minister said that he is Pakistani by birth and that Riaz’s allegations were baseless.

@liaqat ali:
And how many poor students will benefit from these Danish Schools ? by the way, your explaination is not correct.This Schools is for the rich & poor together....pls chk again...
First , tell all the politicians including the govt ( federal & provincial ) to provide basic education to all the poor children as per constitution, then provide high quality to all....
@ishrat salim: Danish schools are for poors only and provide top class education.Those opposing are either not aware of the facts or are elitists who want best education only for rich.Danish schools example should be followed in other provinces also so that poors can also get better education and compete with rich on merit. It is a practice throughout the world to provide higher stndards education on merit.This is what Danish does.Shahbaz will be remebered for thsi positvely for long time to come unless jealous persons like Pervz elahi come aagain and close them down.
Any decent CM would have resiged in view of actions of his kids.
@Javed Afridi:
no it was self exile. no one forced any of the sharifs to go abroad. they themselves requested to be allowed to leave hte country.
@Parvez: Maybe the angels got him a passport!!
@Thinker:
Thnx...& yellow Cab, Danish School ( the amount spent on 4 Danish Schools could have made 62,000 new Schools including renovation & upgradation of old ones including providing facilities to the poor students & payments of salaries to many poor teachers ) & Sasti Roti.....
Well CJ knew he was ok in this case so he took notice of Raja Riaz's allegations but i bet CJ will never take notice of what her daughter did to poor bakery worker coz Sharifs will be in trouble.... Essay insaf ko main nahi manta main nahi manta
He has dodged the main question. Whether he has or had dual nationality?
Question IS ? if musharaf refused to renew his passport then on which passport he travelled to Britain ?
Shabaz is real hero and the best CM given the tighteneing noose against Punjab by the federal Govt. In-corruptable, friend of poor and great champion of merit based policies. Lap top only to students with top merit and not to party supporters.I wish he becomes PM,IF Imran Khan fails to make a breakthrough which I wish he makes.
@Javed Afridi they were in exile as a result of an agreement it wasn't forced one
Javed sahab - correction. Please get hold of their agreement with the General.
lol
Musharraf refused to renew your passport... Then which passport did you use to travel? Please stop lying to the nation.
Bravo CM ! You're the only hope we've left in this country.
In Rapid Transit also he spent the money of taxpayer by the fear pf PTI.
Musharaf denied to renew your passport and you have to go to UK for treatment, NOW QUESTION IS WHAT DID YOU REALLY USE FOR TRAVELLING THEN?
@Thinker: I think you didn't get one.
"Waisted" Lol
So does he have a British passport or not ? If his Pakistani passport had expired and he refused to get a foreign passport, how did he go for his medical check up ? He could have answered in one word : NO.
I think Musharraf was passport renewing authority in the country.
True patriots u both brothers are. Best Cheif minister of four provinces. Estalishment tried best to disappear PML-N from political seen once & for all but failed.
Well after watching your daughter behaviour...you dont deserve to live in Pakistan...
Mush should hanged both of these bt he did a biggest mistake.poor chap
You deserve to be expelled or put in jail. you waisted tax payers money on useless laptop project.
