Shehbaz Sharif wins Pakistan's top job for second time


ISLAMABAD: Shehbaz Sharif (pic), returning as Pakistan's prime minister for a second time on Sunday (March 3) when his brother declined a fourth term, has played a crucial role holding together a disparate coalition for 16 months after rival Imran Khan was ousted.

Sharif, 72, won a parliamentary vote for premier, resuming the role he had held until August when parliament was dissolved ahead of last month's elections. Pakistan has had a caretaker government since then.
