LAHORE: The Additional District and Sessions Judge (Central) has issued notices to YouTuber Rajab Butt and others following allegations of desecration of Islamic prayers (Namaz) on social media.
While hearing a petition filed by advocate Riaz Ali Solangi, the court examined the allegations that Rajab Butt’s actions on social media had insulted Islamic values and hurt the sentiments of Muslims.
The petitioner’s counsel argued that the YouTuber’s alleged conduct amounted to desecration of Islamic practices, which had caused distress among followers of the faith.
