Daska Court cancels TikToker Patlo’s interim bail in deadly mehndi stampede case

A court in Daska has cancelled the interim bail of TikToker Anser, widely known as Mr Patlo, in connection with a deadly stampede

A court in Daska has cancelled the interim bail of TikToker Anser, widely known as Mr Patlo, in connection with a deadly stampede at a wedding ceremony in Sialkot. The decision was taken on Tuesday after the social media personality failed to appear before the court despite being scheduled to attend the proceedings.

The case relates to a tragic incident during a Mehndi ceremony held on Daska Road in Sialkot, where a large gathering turned into chaos, resulting in the deaths of two people and injuries to 18 others.

According to available details, the stampede occurred during the wedding celebrations, triggering panic and confusion among the attendees. As the situation escalated, several people were caught in the rush, leaving multiple individuals injured. Two victims later lost their lives, while 18 others sustained injuries and required medical assistance.

Following the incident, police registered a case against those allegedly responsible at Motra Police Station. Law enforcement authorities subsequently initiated an investigation to establish the circumstances that led to the deadly incident and determine the responsibility of those involved in organising the gathering.

Meanwhile, Mr Patlo had approached a Daska court seeking interim bail in the stampede case. The court granted him temporary legal relief, which remained effective until November 10. He was required to appear before the court on the scheduled date to pursue further legal proceedings.

However, his failure to attend the hearing resulted in the cancellation of his interim bail. With the court withdrawing the temporary relief, Patlo is no longer covered by the protection previously granted to him in connection with the stampede case.

The latest court decision comes amid another legal controversy involving the TikToker and the family of one of the victims.

In a separate development, police registered another case against Patlo over allegations that the family of Rehan, who died in the stampede, was threatened following the tragedy. The victim’s relatives reportedly faced pressure and intimidation after the incident, prompting them to seek legal action.

The allegations led to a separate police case, which is being investigated independently of the stampede proceedings.

According to reports, Sadar Daska Police arrested Patlo on Monday in connection with the alleged threats against Rehan’s family. His arrest took place just one day before the Daska court cancelled his interim bail in the separate stampede case.

The two cases involve distinct allegations arising from the aftermath of the same tragic wedding ceremony. While the first concerns the circumstances surrounding the stampede and the resulting casualties, the second relates to alleged intimidation of the deceased victim’s family.

The developments have brought renewed attention to the incident and the legal proceedings involving the TikToker. The cancellation of his interim bail marks another significant development in the case, while his arrest over the separate threats allegations has added to the legal challenges he is facing.

Police investigations into both matters are continuing. Further proceedings are expected to determine the allegations and establish legal responsibility in the cases. No final determination of guilt has been established at this stage.
