ISLAMABAD: The FIA has decided to seek the help of Interpol to bring back former prime minister Nawaz Sharif close aide Nasir Butt from the UK.

According to sources, the FIA has written a letter to Interpol to issue red warrants for Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Nasir Butt.

Sources told ARY News that senior vice president of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz’s (PML-N) UK chapter, Nasir Butt, will be brought back to Pakistan after a local court had declared him proclaimed offender in the murder case.

Mr Butt is the main character in the judge video case that is related to the confession of former judge of the accountability court Arshad Malik that he convicted former prime minister Nawaz Sharif under duress.

Last year, it was revealed that 14 cases have been registered against Nasir Butt, a Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) activist.

These cases were registered against him at different police stations of the twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi during a period between 1982 and 1996.
