The Instagram page Elaan Today also shared the video and criticised the use of child sexual abuse as a subject of humour, arguing that such remarks could trivialise the trauma of victims and contribute to desensitisation toward serious crimes. Several social media users expressed anger over Rajab Butt’s words and called for more responsible language on digital platforms.
Some users also urged relevant authorities to take action against him and called for restrictions on his content.
