Famous Pakistani YouTuber Saad ur Rehman, known as Ducky Bhai, was detained at Lahore airport while attempting to travel abroad.
According to officials, the National Crime Investigation Agency (NCIA) stopped him after finding his name on the Provisional National Identification List (PNIL), which restricts individuals from leaving the country until ongoing investigations are completed.
Sources claim the YouTuber is under investigation for allegedly promoting online gambling platforms through his social media channels. Since online gambling is banned in Pakistan, authorities consider such promotions a serious offense with harmful social impacts.
Ducky Bhai, who enjoys millions of followers on YouTube and other platforms, is popular for his comedy, gaming streams, and commentary. The news of his detention quickly spread online, drawing mixed reactions from fans—some expressing shock, others demanding clarity.
So far, no formal charges have been announced. Authorities say questioning will continue, and it remains unclear whether he will face legal action or be released.
