LAHORE: A sessions court on Wednesday granted interim bail to YouTuber Ducky Bhai’s wife, Aroob Jatoi, in a case related to the promotion of gambling content on social media.
Additional Session Judge heard the plea and accepted the interim bail, restricting the police from arresting Aroob Jatoi till August 30.
Counsels Irfan Kalyat and Raja Abdul Rehman Ranjha appeared on behalf of the petitioner.
The court also directed Jatoi to join the investigation in her husband Saad-ur-Rehman’s case. It also sought a progress report from the investigating officer at the next hearing.
Earlier on Tuesday, the local court in Lahore approved a four-day extension to the physical remand of Saad-ur-Rehman.
Rehman was arrested on Sunday at Lahore’s airport and is currently in the custody of the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA).
Investigating Officer Shoaib Riaz had requested a 28-day remand, claiming that the accused was connected to an international gambling syndicate. The court reviewed the request and extended his remand until August 23.
