Nawaz Sharif denied any outside contact
2007-09-16
Nawaz Sharif is being denied outside contact in Jeddah, and all communication links to Sharif Palace have been severed and no one is allowed to meet him, Dawn News reported on Saturday. According to the channel, opposition leader Maulana Fazlur Rehman, who arrived in Jeddah on Friday, tried to meet Sharif but failed. Authorities outside Sharif Palace did not even allow Fazl to call Nawaz on his cell phone, the channel added.
