The only brother of Bakhtawar Bhutto, Bilawal Bhutto will not be able to attend the engagement ceremony due to COVID-19.
On Thursday, PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto announced that he has tested positive for coronavirus. Sources say that he has confined himself to a specific portion of the Bilawal House in Karachi.
“I have tested positive for COVID-19 and am self-isolating with mild symptoms,” tweeted the PPP chairman.
Bilawal went into self-isolation on Tuesday after his political secretary Jameel Soomro had tested positive for coronavirus.
Sources said the entire staff of Bilawal House underwent COVID-19 tests.
As a mandatory requirement for security clearance, all those attending the ceremony will have to email a scanned copy of their negative COVID-19 PCR test result 24 hours prior to attendance.
Bakhtawar is getting engaged to Mahmood Chaudhary, the son of UAE-based businessman Younas Chaudhary.
