Vlogger Asad Nadeem Mughal arrested from Lahore Airport in Betting App Case
Welp, looks like Pakistan’s crackdown on shady online betting just bagged another influencer

This time, Asad Nadeem Mughal walked right into it—literally—at Lahore’s Allama Iqbal Airport. Dude just flew in from Sharjah, probably thinking he was in the clear. Nah. The second his passport hit the scanner, boom—alert goes off, FIA swoops in, and he’s cuffed before he even grabs his luggage. Wild, right? Authorities aren’t messing around with these social media hustlers anymore.
So, get this—apparently Asad’s not just some random dude online. People are saying he’s pretty tight with Ducky, you know, that other internet guy who’s already behind bars and waiting for his day in court because of the whole wild gambling scandal blowing up Pakistan’s internet scene.
It’s not just those two, either. A bunch of other influencers have already landed themselves in hot water over the same betting mess. Meanwhile, the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) isn’t letting up—they’re tearing through every corner of social media, trying to figure out how folks are using these platforms for shady betting and dodgy money moves.
Oh, and now Rajab Butt—yeah, the YouTuber with a boatload of followers? He’s in the crosshairs, too. The NCCIA slapped him with an official case, saying he’s been hyping up gambling apps to all his fans. Not exactly the brand deal you wanna brag about, huh?
Man, the whole mess blew up when they nabbed Ducky Bhai. Dude’s still chilling in a cell while the courts juggle all these cases about him allegedly hyping up shady gambling sites. And trust me, the heat’s on—investigators are poking around everywhere, and the influencer crowd is sweating bullets.
But hey, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The NCCIA came out swinging—straight-up banned 46 betting apps all over Pakistan. Not just random ones either; we’re talking big names like 1xBet, Chicken Road (who even came up with that name?), Aviator Games, Dafabet, 22Bet, Casumo, Rabona, 10Cric, Plinko, and Bet365. Basically, if you’ve heard of it, it’s probably on the naughty list.
These apps aren’t just about illegal gambling, either. They’re messing with Pakistan’s digital money scene, turning it into the wild west and leaving regular folks—and the whole economy—hanging out to dry.
So yeah, between the arrests piling up, apps getting the boot, and investigations going full throttle, this gambling fiasco is shaping up to be one of the craziest cyber crime crackdowns Pakistan’s ever seen. Honestly, grab some popcorn—this is only getting messier.
