The release of YouTuber Saad-ur-Rehman, widely known as Ducky Bhai, was delayed on Tuesday despite the Lahore High Court granting him bail in a case over promotion of gambling applications.

His lawyer, Amrit Sheikh, said the robkar verification is a time-consuming process. It could not be completed before court hours ended.

“We made every effort today, but the robkar could not be issued. It should be completed by tomorrow,” she added.

Earlier, the court approved Ducky Bhai’s bail against a Rs1 million surety. He was arrested for promoting gambling apps on his YouTube channel, which is illegal under Pakistan’s anti-gambling laws.

The hearing was presided over by Justice Shahram Sarwar Chaudhry, who noted that, as per Supreme Court guidelines, denial of bail in such cases is uncommon.
