A few weeks ago, a number of YouTube channels that promoted black magic as a way to defeat witches were raking it in when it came to subscribers, views, reviews, and paid memberships for the entirety of the magic universe.
One of these channels acquired more than 200,000 followers by teaching easy techniques for learning how to see gold mines.
Over a dozen of these channels have been blocked by the Multan-based criminal division of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), and the individuals in charge of them have been apprehended. The group, which claimed to be experts in using owl flesh and blood in black magic rituals, was situated in Muzaffargarh’s Jatoi neighbourhood.
Adnan Khan, an assistant director for the FIA, said that after learning about the booming black magic industry, he sent ASI Rai Muhammad Tanveer to find the gang’s location. The FIA discovered that the gang ran its operations out of studios in the Mehrab Hotel in Jatoi. Mehr Ghulam Mustafa, Muhammad Shahbaz, Jahangir Akhtar, Amir Raza, Irfan Shah, and Muhammad Shah are among those in charge of the channels.
According to the FIA, the suspects offered customers entire black magic training on YouTube channels and other social media sites in exchange for millions of dollars. People who were interested were instructed to spend a specific sum of money to have access to “premium movies” and to purchase “wands,” “owl blood,” and “owl flesh” to engage in witchcraft. The gang also offered their assistance in resolving individuals’ issues via these spiritual avenues.
People who wanted children and those having difficulty finding love and marriage were among their typical clientele.
The accused occasionally made money by creating movies and images of numerous of their female clients and using them as blackmail.
Locals became aware of their operations when the suspects began to live a luxury lifestyle and began purchasing agricultural property, plots, and costly cars.
Sections 419, 420, 468, and 471 of the Pakistani Penal Code, Sections 3 and 4 of the Anti-Money Laundering Act, and Sections 4, 17 and 21 of the 2016 Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act were all used by the FIA to file a case against the accused.
The gang employed strategies, according to the FIA assessment, to obtain funds from the clients.
