Rajab Butt, a popular Pakistani YouTuber, and four other accused will face indictment on August 18 in an assault case, a Lahore sessions court ruled.
Additional Sessions Judge Zafaryab heard the case following a complaint filed by Ayesha Jutt against Butt and the other accused.
During the hearing, the prosecution raised concerns about the police investigation. Prosecutors argued that investigators had not properly examined the accused while preparing the challan.
