Earlier today, Junaid Safdar grandson of former Prime Minister of Pakistan, tied the knot with Ayesha Saif Khan, daughter of former NAB chairman Saifur Rehman, at Lanesborough, one of the most expensive 5-star hotels in London.
The groom Junaid Safdar holds a Masters in International Relations from the London School of Economics as well as in Global Governance and Ethics from the University College London. Dressed in a black bow-tie suit, Junaid Safdar signed his Nikkah papers.
Three times prime minister Nawaz Sharif, who was already in London for medical treatment, hosted the event, with PML-N leaders and relatives of the family being on the guest list.
The invitation card of the wedding was earlier shared by the groom’s mother Maryam Nawaz in a tweet. The engagement was held on September 16, 2017, at the Defence residence of a former accountability official in Lahore. Maryam Nawaz had already revealed earlier that she will not be seeking permission from the government to travel abroad for the occasion. PML-N vice president Maryam Nawaz was placed on the ECL along with her father in 2018 following their conviction in the Avenfield case.
I was in jail when my beloved mother passed away and now I won’t be able to share my son’s happiness, but, I will NOT make any request to this government for travel abroad. I leave the matter to Almighty Allah. https://t.co/hNXBSpa7yB
