His release was also confirmed by his lawyer, Mian Ali Ashfaq.

اللہ کے خاص فضل، کرم و رحمت سے اپنے شہزادے کو پھر لے آیا ھوں-

مشکلات کے انبار، معاملہ فہمی کی آخری حد، کمزور عدلیہ و موجودہ غیر مؤثر سر عام آئین و قانونی بے بسی کی وجہ سے بہت زیادہ وقت لگا- 🙏

ناقابل بیان حالات کے باوجود اللہ رب العزت نے یہ بہترین دن دکھایا اس وقت صرف بے پناہ… pic.twitter.com/z96M9pGaPZ

Riaz was arrested on 11 May, two days after PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s arrest on May 9 which resulted in violent protests.

On September 20, the Lahore High Court (LHC) questioned the Punjab police chief on Riaz, giving him a “last opportunity” to recover the YouTuber by September 26.
