Islamabad, Sep 17 : Former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, his daughter Maryam Nawaz and son-in-law Muhammad Safdar were back in Rawalpindi's Adiala Jail as a five-day parole granted to them to attend Kulsoom Nawaz's funeral ended on Monday.
The parole of the three, who have been serving sentences since July in the Avenfield corruption case, ended at 4 p.m. They were shifted to the prison amid stringent security, Geo News reported.
They were flown to Rawalpindi on a special flight from Lahore. Three members of the Sharif family -- Hamza Shehbaz, Salman and Yousuf Abbas -- had been granted permission to accompany them inside the Lahore airport, sources told Geo News.
Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) President Shehbaz Sharif was granted permission to accompany the three on the special flight to Rawalpindi, the report said.
Earlier in the day, the members of the Sharif family visited Begum Kulsoom's grave. The wife the three-time Premier died last week in London after a year-long battle with cancer and was laid to rest in Lahore on September 14.

Dhanbad (Jharkhand) (PTI): At least four workers died after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district on Saturday, a police official said.
The incident took place at Moonidih coal washery in the command area of Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL).
"Bodies of all four workers were dug out of debris during a rescue operation," Putki police station in-charge Waqar Hussain told PTI.
The incident took place when coal slurry was being loaded into trucks by workers, during which a large chunk of slurry fell and trapped several workers underneath, officials said.
The deceased have been identified as Manik Bauri, Dinesh Bauri, Deepak Bauri, and Hemlal Gope.
Meanwhile, the family members of the deceased and local villagers placed the bodies in front of the washery gate and began a protest.
They demanded compensation, jobs for dependents and action against those responsible for the incident.
Police and administration officials are trying to pacify the protesters, an official said.
