Lahore [Pakistan], January 29 (ANI): Pakistan police have decided to send recommendations to the provincial and federal governments for banning dangerous video games including China's PUBG after a youth shot dead his mother and three siblings in the Lahore district of Punjab province.
According to a Punjab Police spokesperson, the decision to send recommendations amid the fueling rising trend of firing and violence so that the younger generation of the country could be protected from their harmful effects, The News International reported.
Citing an incident, the police said that the decision was also taken in view of a tragic incident in which a youth, a chronic player of the PUBG game, shot dead his mother and three siblings in the Kahna area.
"Ali Zain shot dead his mother, two sisters, and a brother on January 19, 2022, and hid the pistol," The News International quoting police spokesperson reported.
