Nawaz Sharif granted bail due to deteriorating health

Former Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has been granted bail by Pakistan court. Sharif was granted bail for his medical condition.

Nawaz Sharif is "fighting for life" after a drastic drop in his blood platelet count, a media report quoted his personal doctor as saying on Tuesday, days after Pakistan's former prime minster was rushed from prison to a hospital.

Sharif, 69, was admitted to the Services Hospital on Monday night from the anti-graft body's custody after his platelets dropped to a critical low level of 2,000.
