Lahore, Pakistan – Web Desk: Pakistani YouTuber Rajab Butt has come under renewed criticism after a viral video sparked concerns over privacy violations in a public setting, prompting a strong reaction from Punjab Assembly member Hina Parvez Butt.
The video circulating on social media shows Rajab Butt filming a vlog while dining at a restaurant. A family seated behind him appeared visibly uncomfortable, with a woman seen attempting to hide her face and turn away from the camera.
The footage triggered widespread backlash online, with many users accusing the YouTuber of irresponsible behavior and disregard for others’ privacy in public spaces.
Responding on X (formerly Twitter), Hina Parvez Butt described the conduct as “shameful,” criticizing individuals who record videos without considering the privacy of others. She added that it was concerning that such personalities continue to be admired despite such actions.
The controversy comes as Rajab Butt has already been in the spotlight over various legal and personal matters. His private life has also drawn attention, particularly following his marriage to Iman Fatima in 2024 and their subsequent separation in 2026. The couple welcomed a son, Kiwan Sultan, in September 2025 before confirming their divorce earlier this year.
The latest incident has reignited debate over social media ethics, influencer accountability, and the importance of respecting privacy in public places. Critics argue that with growing online influence comes increased responsibility toward societal norms.
