Ban sought on PUBG after game ‘addict’ guns down mother, siblings

Punjab police advise ban on PUBG after game 'addict' kills mother, siblings

LAHORE: The Punjab Police on Friday suggested a ban on ‘PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG)’ after game “addict” allegedly shot dead his mother, sister and brother in Lahore’s Khana area a few days ago.

According to details, the provincial police have arrested an 18-year-old “PUBG addict” for allegedly killing his mother, sister and brother in their sleep. The police claimed that the teenager had taken the extreme step after being addicted to playing the online game.

 

کاہنہ لاہور میں والدہ اور تین بچوں کے قتل کا معمہ حل, پب جی (PUBG) گیم کا عادی بیٹا ہی قاتل نکلا۔ ملزم نے گھر میں موجود والدہ کے پسٹل سے ماں، بہنوں اور بھائی کو قتل کیا. پنجاب پولیس کا خطرناک گیم (PUBG)پر پابندی لگانے کیلئے صوبائی و وفاقی حکومت سے سفارش کا فیصلہ۔ pic.twitter.com/akudvru59S

The suspect got depressed by repeatedly losing in the online game and being scolded by his mother for excessive indulgence. “Repeated defeats in PUBG increased my stress and I fired shots thinking that everyone will come back to life like in the game,” the suspect confessed.

Ali was introduced to the game during his stay at a hostel. It captured his mind so completely that he started living an imaginary “dual life”. Under influence of the game, on January 19, he shot dead his mother, two sisters and an elder brother.

The spokesperson said that further investigation into all aspects of the incident was under way. He further said that PUBG is very dangerous for the mental development of the youth as the players accustomed to the game get involved in violent activities to complete the task.

He also requested the parents to monitor their children and prevent them from engaging in any negative activity.

Last year, a man reportedly influenced by PUBG and Ice (drugs) had shot dead several members of his family in Nawan Kot. The officer said that police were taking this aspect into account also.
