Lahore Court Sets Jan. 16 for Charges Against Ducky Bhai in Gambling Promotion Case

The judge said only the court can authorize activity on the seized YouTube channel during the sub-judice proceedings.

Overview

  • Judicial Magistrate Naeem Watto distributed challan copies to Saad-ur-Rehman, Aroob Jatoi, and two other accused and summoned them for the next hearing.
  • The NCCIA’s case alleges promotion of an illegal gambling app, and investigators have filed a detailed challan against all defendants.
  • The court designated Ducky Bhai’s YouTube channel as case property and prohibited any uploads without prior judicial permission.
  • The bench ruled that vlogging tied to the case without permission is unlawful and rejected a previously submitted affidavit as self-granted authorization.
  • Defense counsel argued the permission process was unclear and said the channel was not being used, while prosecutors opposed any posting due to the risk of promoting illegal gambling.
