LAHORE: A sessions court in Lahore on Tuesday fixed 18 August as the date for framing charges against social media personality Rajab Butt and four other accused in a private complaint (istaghasa) filed against them.
Additional Sessions Judge Zafaryab heard the complaint, which was brought by Ayesha Jatt.
At the close of proceedings, the court set the indictment date and summoned all five accused to appear in person at the next hearing.
After reviewing the arguments and the case file, the judge fixed 18 August for the framing of charges and directed the attendance of Rajab Butt and his co-accused on that date.
Rajab Butt is among Pakistan’s most-followed digital creators, and the case has drawn heavy attention on social platforms since the complaint was filed.
