Former Prime Minister of Pakistan Nawaz Sharif returned to his homeland on Saturday after nearly four years of self-imposed exile, PTI reported. His return shook up the political landscape in the country ahead of the country's controversial general elections. Nawaz, a three-time prime minister who was once removed from power in a military coup, arrived at Islamabad airport on Saturday. His arrival follows an Islamabad court's decision to grant him protective bail in a number of cases.
