PTA has banned PUBG because of recommendations by the DIG Operations Lahore, Ashfaq Ahmad Khan.

Complaints regarding the game being hostile and violent were received from different segments of society. The game led three teenagers to suicide in Lahore. DIG raised the issue writing a letter to the CCPO Lahore, informing the official about the reported suicides.

DIG detailed that he and his higher-ups are in contact with FIA, PTA, and other departments to ban PUBG and other violent games permanently. Teenagers taking extreme steps over a game is an alarming situation and needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. PTA has been asked to conduct thorough research regarding the situation and take an affirmative step. The Cyber Crime Wing has been approached for necessary action.
