Popular Pakistani YouTuber Rajab Butt has once again become the center of attention over a legal dispute involving his former wife, Iman Asad. The social media personality, who has millions of followers across YouTube, Instagram and TikTok, has reportedly sent another legal notice to his ex-wife, this time alleging defamation.
The development was revealed by Iman Asad’s lawyer, who discussed the contents of the notice and the response submitted on behalf of his client. According to the lawyer, Rajab Butt has accused Iman Asad of making and sharing comments, reels and videos that allegedly damage his reputation.
The dispute has once again brought the former couple’s personal issues into the public spotlight, particularly because of their large social media audiences.
Defamation Allegations
According to Iman Asad’s lawyer, the legal notice sent by Rajab Butt contains allegations that his former wife has been publishing content intended to defame him.
The lawyer stated that the notice refers to comments, short-form videos and other social media material allegedly shared by Iman Asad. Rajab Butt reportedly considers this content defamatory and has sought legal action through the notice.
However, the lawyer claims that the notice did not include evidence supporting the allegations made against his client.
This point has become central to the response from Iman Asad’s legal team. Rather than accepting the allegations, the lawyer said a formal reply has already been submitted and requested that evidence supporting the claims be provided.
The request, according to the lawyer, is intended to allow the legal team to understand exactly which statements or social media posts are being challenged and assess the allegations accordingly.
Notice Reportedly Sent on Birthday
One detail that has attracted particular attention is the timing of the notice.
Iman Asad’s lawyer claimed that Rajab Butt sent the defamation and custody-related notice to his former wife on her birthday. The lawyer highlighted the timing while discussing the latest development between the two sides.
The inclusion of a custody issue alongside the defamation matter indicates that the disagreement may involve more than social media statements. However, the available information does not establish the details or status of any separate custody proceedings.
As the matter involves allegations from one side and a response from the other, the claims should be understood as part of an ongoing legal dispute rather than established findings.
Lawyer Calls Notice an Attempt to Harass
Iman Asad’s lawyer has strongly criticized the latest legal notice.
According to the lawyer, the absence of evidence attached to the notice raises questions about the allegations being made against his client. The legal team has therefore asked for supporting material before assessing the claims in detail.
The lawyer also described the notice as apparently being an attempt to harass Iman Asad.
That characterization represents the position of Iman Asad’s legal team. Rajab Butt, meanwhile, has reportedly taken the position that his former wife has engaged in conduct that harms his reputation.
The conflicting positions mean that the dispute could continue through legal channels unless the two sides reach an understanding.
Rajab Butt’s Huge Social Media Following
The dispute has attracted significant public attention partly because of Rajab Butt’s enormous online following.
He reportedly has around 9 million subscribers on YouTube, approximately 3 million followers on Instagram and close to 1 million followers on TikTok. His large audience means that any dispute involving him can quickly spread across multiple social media platforms.
For public figures, accusations involving defamation can have a particularly significant impact because online comments and videos can reach millions of people within a short period.
At the same time, social media disputes involving celebrities and influencers can become highly public even when the underlying legal issues are still being examined.
Legal Dispute Remains Ongoing
The latest notice appears to be another development in the continuing dispute between Rajab Butt and Iman Asad. Iman Asad’s legal team has now formally responded and is seeking evidence to determine the basis of the allegations.
The response could potentially lead to further communication between the two legal teams, depending on whether supporting evidence is provided and how the parties choose to proceed.
For now, there is no indication from the information provided that a final legal determination has been made regarding the alleged defamation.
The controversy nevertheless demonstrates the challenges public figures can face when personal disputes move onto social media. With millions of followers watching their content, statements, reels and videos can quickly become part of a much larger public conversation.
As the legal process develops, attention is likely to remain focused on what evidence is presented and how both sides respond to the allegations. Until any matter is decided through the appropriate legal process, claims made by either party should be treated as allegations rather than established facts.
