Rajab Butt’s Wife Files Case Seeking Child Maintenance and Dowry Return

Popular Pakistani YouTuber Rajab Butt’s wife has filed a legal case seeking monthly maintenance for their son and the return of her dowry belongings in Lahore, according to details of the court proceedings.

The application was submitted before a family court in Lahore. The petitioner has asked the court to determine a monthly maintenance amount for their son, Kaivan, and order the return of her dowry items.

In her petition, the woman maintained that she was allegedly forced to leave the family home just a few months after her marriage. She further stated that Rajab Butt had not paid maintenance or covered the expenses associated with raising their son.

The petitioner also told the court that the YouTuber earns millions of rupees each month. On that basis, she requested that the court set an appropriate monthly amount to meet the child’s needs and direct the return of the belongings she brought into the marriage.

The case concerns two principal matters: financial support for the couple’s child and the recovery of the petitioner’s dowry property. Child maintenance proceedings generally involve assessing a child’s needs and the financial circumstances of the parents, while disputes over dowry belongings require the court to consider the evidence presented by the parties.

After an initial hearing, the court issued a notice to Rajab Butt and directed him to submit a response on the scheduled date. The matter will proceed as the court considers the petitioner’s requests and the respondent’s position.

The allegations outlined in the petition have not been established by a final judicial decision. Rajab Butt’s response to the application was not included in the information available about the initial hearing.

The case adds a legal dimension to the couple’s reported marital dispute, with the court now expected to consider the request for child maintenance and the return of dowry belongings under the applicable legal process.
