Pakistani YouTuber Saad ur Rehman, better known as Ducky Bhai, was reportedly stopped at Lahore airport while trying to fly abroad.
Officials confirmed that the National Crime Investigation Agency (NCIA) detained him because his name had been added to the Provisional National Identification List (PNIL). This list prevents individuals under inquiry from leaving the country.
Reports suggest that Ducky Bhai is being investigated for allegedly promoting online gambling websites through his platforms. Since gambling is illegal in Pakistan, authorities treat such activity as a serious violation due to its social and legal consequences.
With millions of subscribers, Ducky Bhai is among the most well-known content creators in Pakistan, mainly recognized for his gaming videos, comedy skits, and commentary. The incident quickly caught public attention, with his supporters voicing surprise and demanding transparency about the situation.
For now, no official charges have been filed against him. Authorities have said that he will undergo further questioning, and only then will a decision be made on whether legal proceedings will follow or if he will be cleared to travel again.
