Renowned YouTuber Rajab Butt has reportedly left Pakistan amid blasphemy allegations against him.

 

As per the details, Butt has left for an undisclosed location and announced a temporary break from vlogging. His sudden departure comes as he faces potential legal action under the country’s blasphemy laws for allegedly making disrespectful remarks against Islamic figures.

 

“I will not upload any new vlog without my mother’s permission,” Butt said during a TikTok live session on Thursday evening, explaining that his mother was deeply concerned about the current situation and had accompanied him to the airport. While he did not disclose his location, Butt went on to added that he would continue going live on TikTok.

 

“I’m not saying goodbye to vlogging, but I will wait for the situation to improve. I’ve recorded videos to clarify things and I’ll release them at the appropriate time,” he said further.

 

Earlier, a concerned citizen’s petition in a Lahore court accused Butt of using derogatory language about the companions of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in a social media video. According to the petition, the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) had already been approached, but no FIR was registered.

 

This was not the first time Butt found himself embroiled in legal trouble.

 

Butt has remained in the spotlight over the past six to seven months for various controversies. In May, a video went viral allegedly showing him and his associates assaulting a young man. The victim later approached Satu Katla Police Station for legal action. However, Butt issued an apology and called the incident a misunderstanding. The matter was eventually resolved after the victim withdrew the complaint.

 

In another serious case, an FIR was registered against Butt and his cousin Salman Haider. Haider was accused of rape, blackmail, and unlawful confinement, while Butt was accused of aiding in detaining the complainant and her sister. He secured bail in the case, and the interim bail of Salman Haider was also extended.

 

Earlier this month, Butt was stopped by the Dolphin Force in Lahore as part of a citywide crackdown on vehicles with black tinted windows. During a routine inspection at Thokar Niaz Baig, officers removed black paper from his car windows. DSP Mubashir Awan led the team, and SP Arslan Zahid warned that similar actions would continue across the city.

 

The YouTuber also previously sparked backlash after naming his perfume “295” in a reference to Pakistan’s blasphemy law. Amid the uproar, he left the country. In January, he was arrested just a day after his wedding for illegal possession of a lion cub and for displaying weapons.

 

He also drew online criticism when he, along with fellow YouTubers Ducky Bhai and Nadeem Nani Wala, launched a paid online course platform. The venture was mocked by fans who pointed out that much of the course content was already available for free on YouTube.
