A Lahore court dismissed on Monday the bail application of YouTuber Saadur Rehman, known more popularly as Ducky Bhai, after Magistrate Muhammad Naeem Wattoo concluded his actions had extraordinary effects on society, especially on young people.
The counsel stated the application was banned after Rehman’s arrest, questioning the merit of the complaint and calling it “frivolous”.
Zaina Zaheer, the lawyer representing the state, countered saying gambling was banned in the country even if any specific gambling application was not.
Magistrate Wattoo concluded the defendant had neither denied his ties to the applications, nor presented any alternative source for the recovered funds.
Calling social media influencers to be careful of what they promote, Magistrate Wattoo said Rehman’s actions can not be treated casually and dismissed his plea for bail.
