He was in London from August 31 to be with his ailing wife Kulsoom, who is undergoing treatment for throat cancer. Sharif, 67, decided to return after consultations with senior party leaders, including his younger brother and Punjab province Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif in London, party officials said.
The aircraft carrying him landed here at around 7.30 am and a confident Sharif came out, waved to his supporters and left, reports said. Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) officials said he would stay in Punjab House in Islamabad and hold meetings with party leaders on Tuesday.
