The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Monday put off a writ petition seeking a ban on a popular online game.

A single bench comprising Justice Shams Mahmood took up the petition filed by a citizen named Tanveer Ahmed.

The court adjourned the case due to the absence of the petitioner’s lawyer.

The federal government and the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) have been impleaded as respondents in the petition.

The petition stated that several people have fallen prey to the negative impact of the game and added a teenage boy, who was addicted to the mobile game, lately killed his mother and three siblings in Lahore.

“There is no law to regulate online games in Pakistan,” the petition said, pleading with the high court to ban the mobile game immediately.
