"Sad to learn of Begum Kulsoom Nawaz's death. She was a courageous woman of great dignity and confronted her disease with fortitude. My condolences and prayers go to the Sharif family.," Khan tweeted.

Ex-Pakistan PM Nawaz Sharif's wife Begum Kulsoom passed away in London on Tuesday.

Nawaz Sharif and his daughter Maryam are currently lodged in a Pakistani jail.

Sources at Adiala Jail told Geo News that the former premier and his daughter, Maryam Nawaz, have been informed about Begum Kulsoom's passing.
