DescriptionFormer Pakistani Prime Minster Nawaz Sharif has returned to Pakistan after eight years in exile.

He left the country in 1999 after current President Pervez Musharraf toppled him in a coup.

It is believed that Gen Musharraf is hoping that Mr Sharif will be able to dent Benazir Bhutto's prospects in the forthcoming parliamentary elections.

When Mr Sharif attempted to return in September, Gen Musharraf was at that time facing the biggest political challenge of his eight years in power.
