Published Updated

A teenage boy in Lahore committed suicide after his mother stopped him from playing Players Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG).

According to local media reports, his body was found on the roof of the house with a noose around his neck. This new case of suicide adds to the already several cases in Punjab. A teenage boy in Hanjarwal, Punjab committed suicide after his parents stopped him from playing the game.

Another case emerged in Lahore where a 20-year-old boy took his own life in Saddar Bazaar neighbourhood in North Cantonment

On June 1, the Pakistan Telecom­munication Authority (PTA) banned PUBG, citing several complaints about it being addictive and its potential negative impact on children's physical and psychological health.

However, the PTA lifted the ban on July 30.
