Former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, who has served three terms, is set to travel to China for five days for a personal visit, according to a media report. This visit, at the age of 74, marks&nbsp;Sharif's first international trip since his return to Pakistan in October last year, following a self-imposed exile in the UK lasting four years.

Accompanying him on this trip will be Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, as reported by Geo News on Monday (April 22). The purpose of Sharif's visit is primarily for a medical checkup, confirmed by sources within the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).

Additionally, during his stay, the former prime minister is believed to hold meetings related&nbsp;to development projects in the Punjab province and to engage with Chinese company owners.

Notably, Sharif's travel plans come after a high court granted him permission in November 2019 to travel abroad for medical treatment, based on urgent health concerns.&nbsp;

<h2>Imran Khan, Bushra Bibi's fiasco continues</h2>

Doctors have confirmed that Bushra Bibi, the wife of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan, does not have any major health issues, dispelling claims that she was being given food laced with poison.

Bibi is currently held under house arrest at the Bani Gala residence, which has been converted into a sub-jail. In January, both Bibi and Khan were sentenced to 14 years in prison in the Toshakhana corruption case.

Following the verdict, Bibi surrendered at Rawalpindi's Adiala Jail and was subsequently taken into custody. Later, she was transferred to her Bani Gala residence after it was designated as a sub-jail.

Despite allegations from both Bibi and Khan regarding the poisoning of Bibi's food, a report revealed that a comprehensive medical examination conducted in the presence of Khan's trusted family physician, Dr&nbsp;Asim Yousuf, concluded that she only had a minor gastric issue.

The report stated that Bibi spent six hours at a private hospital in Islamabad for diagnostic tests, including an endoscopy. While she declined to undergo a blood test, she did undergo ultrasound, ECHO, and ECG tests. According to sources from the hospital, all medical reports for the former first lady were cleared by the doctors.&nbsp;
