Lahore: The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Monday rejected a request seeking a ban on Pakistan’s popular online gaming app PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG).
A citizen Tanveer Sarwar has been relocated to the High Court after violence and killings involving game-loving youths.
However, the petitioner did not appear at today’s hearing.
The Large Hadron Collider handled petitioners’ request to stop pursuing the case.
The petitioners argue that PUBG is creating intolerance in society, especially among young people who are addicted to playing the game.
He insisted that the game posed a threat to the lives and health of the players, as well as to their families.
The petition seeks an immediate ban on the gaming app to save the younger generation from destruction.
The Federal Government, the Pakistan Telecommunications Authority (PTA) and other relevant authorities have been the respondents to the petition.
