Lahore: Pakistani YouTuber Rajab Butt has issued a detailed statement addressing the controversy surrounding his marriage, saying he is resolving the matter through his legal and religious rights.

In a video message shared on social media, Rajab Butt admitted that the situation escalated largely because of his own mistake. He explained that responding to questions about his marriage on social media at the same time created confusion and made the matter more complicated. According to him, the issue should have been handled through legal and religious channels from the beginning.

The YouTuber also spoke about the narratives and criticism circulating online regarding his family and personal life. He said that negative comments and public criticism do not trouble him, adding that no one can harm him except Allah.

Rajab Butt further announced that he will no longer discuss personal or marital matters on social media, and is determined to fulfill his legal and religious responsibilities to resolve the dispute.

It is worth noting that Rajab Butt recently sent a divorce notice to his wife, to which Iman Rajab responded publicly.

The development sparked widespread debate on social media, with users expressing mixed reactions to the ongoing controversy.

KARACHI: A local court in Karachi has extended the interim bail of well-known YouTuber Rajab Butt until March 30 in a case related to alleged disrespect of Islamic symbols.

The hearing was held at the District and Sessions Court (Central), where the matter of interim bail in the blasphemy case against Rajab Butt came up for consideration.

The Additional District and Sessions Judge (Central) accepted a request from the defence to adjourn the hearing. Rajab Butt, who is currently out on interim bail, appeared before the court.

During the proceedings, the complainant’s counsel argued that the court time was 8:30 am, but the accused appeared at 9:30 am, and requested that his bail be cancelled.

The complainant’s lawyer further stated that they were fully prepared to present evidence, but the defence counsel failed to appear in court.

A junior lawyer informed the court that the accused’s counsel, Mian Ali Ashfaq, was on official leave. The court observed that the defence counsel had failed to appear previously as well and directed that a formal application be submitted in this regard.

Subsequently, the court approved the request for adjournment and extended Rajab Butt’s interim bail until March 30.

It is pertinent to note that Rajab Butt had earlier secured interim bail in the case registered against him at Haidery Market Police Station.
