UK Revokes Rajab Butt’s Visa, Islamabad Court Grants 10-Day Transit Bail

Authorities say he failed to disclose pending Pakistani cases when applying for a long-term visa.

Overview

  • British officials cancelled the influencer’s visa and ordered his removal after discovering undeclared legal cases, with the Home Office citing immigration rules.
  • Rajab Butt left the United Kingdom and returned to Islamabad with Nadeem Naniwala, where neither was arrested due to prior court protections.
  • The Islamabad High Court approved 10-day transit bail for both men and directed them to approach the relevant trial courts within that period.
  • Prosecutors in Pakistan are pursuing inquiries tied to alleged promotion of a gambling application and related cybercrime offences, with some cases registered by the NCIA.
  • Butt disputes that he was deported, acknowledging the visa cancellation and saying he will seek a review, while sources say UK intelligence earlier cleared both men of terrorism links.
