    Here is how many subscribers Ducky Bhai lost after Sham Idrees’ claims

    Popular Pakistani YouTuber Ducky Bhai is in trouble after Sham Idrees made some shocking statements about him, causing Ducky Bhai to lose subscribers in a short span, and leaving fans confused about what’s really going on.

    According to social counts, Ducky Bhai has lost around 290,000 subscribers in the last three weeks.

    Sham Idrees, another well-known YouTuber, recently shared surprising details about his past with Ducky Bhai. Some people believe Sham, while others think he’s just creating drama. The situation has divided fans, with social media filled with arguments about who is right.

    Sham has accused Ducky Bhai of harassment and unethical behavior, claiming that their long-standing feud led to serious personal attacks. He revealed that during their dispute, his wife, Froggy, became a target of online abuse, and false accusations against his father caused immense emotional distress to his family. While Sham initially forgave Ducky and moved on, he now alleges that Ducky has resumed harmful behavior, this time targeting smaller YouTubers and less influential creators.

    Fans are reacting strongly. Some are unsubscribing from Ducky Bhai’s channel, while others continue to support him, demanding solid proof.

    With his subscriber count dropping, Ducky Bhai must find a way to regain his audience’s trust. Will he respond to Sham Idrees’ claims, or will he remain silent and wait for the drama to die down? Fans are eagerly watching to see what happens next.

    Sham Idrees and Ducky Bhai controversy

    Sham Idrees has broken his silence on his long-standing feud with Ducky Bhai, making serious allegations and sharing evidence against the fellow YouTuber.

    The rivalry, which began seven years ago after Ducky criticised Sham’s daily vlogs and personal life, has now taken a dramatic turn.

    Sham opened up about the harassment he endured during their clash.

    In a recent video, Sham Idrees said, “At the height of our dispute, my wife (Froggy) became a target of online abuse.”

    He also shared how false accusations against his father deeply affected his family.

    “It caused immense distress, but I chose to forgive Ducky and move forward,” Sham stated.

    Despite their reconciliation, he now claims that Ducky Bhai has resumed harmful behaviour, this time targeting lesser-known YouTubers and less influential creators.

    In his video, Sham included testimonials from individuals alleging that Ducky has threatened them. These accusations range from harming families to sabotaging work and even raiding personal property.

    One of the most outspoken critics is fellow creator Badlabrother, who accused Ducky of using his platform to manipulate and intimidate others.

    Sham urged Ducky Bhai to rethink his actions and take responsibility.

    “It’s time for him to stop. He needs to consider the impact of his actions on smaller creators and the harm caused to their personal lives,” Sham stated.

    The YouTuber emphasised that he holds no ill will but believes Ducky’s toxic behaviour must be addressed and corrected publicly.

  • Terrorists demand prisoner exchange for releasing atomic energy workers

    Terrorists demand prisoner exchange for releasing atomic energy workers

    Prominent journalist Azaz Syed revealed on Wednesday that Fitna Al Khawarij, commonly known as Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), allegedly kidnapped 17 workers of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC) from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s (KP) Lakki Marwat district on January 9.

    Speaking on the YouTube channel Talk SHOCK, Syed disclosed that the Khawarij are demanding the release of their members from the Law Enforcement Agency (LEA) and police in exchange for the PAEC workers’ release.

    On January 9, 17 PAEC workers, including a coach driver, were abducted at gunpoint in KP’s Lakki Marwat district.

    District police spokesperson Shahid Marwat had said, “Around 9am on Thursday, 17 workers, including a driver, involved in a mining project were travelling in a minibus when they were stopped and taken away at gunpoint by some men on Dara Tang Road in Lakki Marwat.”

    Hours after the incident, videos purportedly showing the abducted workers surfaced on social media, with the workers appealing to the government to meet the militants’ demands for their release.

    According to Syed, Pashtun Tahaffuz Movement (PTM) member Naseer Turab was involved in reconciliation efforts with the Khawarij and the government to secure the release of the PAEC workers.

    Meanwhile, Syed claimed that Pakistan allegedly conducted an airstrike on the terrorists’ hideout, where the PAEC workers were being held captive.

    The journalist stated that the Khawarij handed over the dead body of a PAEC worker, along with a driver who was still alive. The terrorists claimed the death was the result of the alleged airstrike.

    The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) has not issued any statement regarding the targeting of these hideouts.

    According to Dawn News, the deceased was a contract worker for PAEC named Rehanullah, whose body was found in the rugged terrain of the remote Zareefwaal area in Lakki Marwat district on Saturday.

    After medico-legal formalities at the hospital, Rehanullah’s body was handed over to his relatives. He was laid to rest in a local graveyard, and his funeral prayers were attended by a large number of people from across the district.

    On Monday, thousands of people protested against the delay in the safe recovery of the abducted PAEC workers in front of the main gate of the District Headquarters Complex, Lakki Marwat.

    Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Sher Afzal Marwat also participated in the protest, urging people to set aside political affiliations and unite for peace.

    Later, one of the speakers, Naseer Turab, warned that if the terrorists did not release the hostages within three days, the tribesmen would come out with weapons and “launch an action” against them.

  • Girl, 15, killed by America-returned father over her TikTok account

    Girl, 15, killed by America-returned father over her TikTok account

    A man who recently returned to Quetta, Balochistan, from the United States has confessed to killing his 15-year-old daughter over her TikTok activity, according to police reports.

    Station House Officer (SHO) Babar Baloch stated that the incident occurred on Monday night in Quetta. Initially, the suspect claimed that an unidentified armed man had shot his daughter. However, during police questioning, he confessed to the crime.

    Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Zohaib Mohsin revealed that the suspect and his family disapproved of the teenager’s clothing, lifestyle, and social media presence. Despite their objections, she continued to post videos on TikTok, which reportedly angered her father.

    Authorities have arrested the suspect along with his brother-in-law. A murder case has been registered under Section 302 of the Pakistan Penal Code. Police have recovered the victim’s mobile phone but have yet to unlock it for further investigation.

    The suspect is reportedly a U.S. citizen, but officials have not confirmed his citizenship status or whether the U.S. embassy has been notified.

    Pakistan has over 54 million TikTok users, and the app has been banned multiple times due to concerns over inappropriate content. The Human Rights Commission of Pakistan reports that ‘honour killings’ remain a serious issue in the country. Between January and November 2024, at least 346 people were reportedly killed in such cases, with Punjab and Sindh recording the highest numbers.

    The victim’s family has declined to comment on the incident.

  • Alibaba unveils new AI model Qwen 2.5, claims it beats DeepSeek

    Alibaba unveils new AI model Qwen 2.5, claims it beats DeepSeek

    Chinese tech giant Alibaba has launched a new version of its artificial intelligence (AI) model, Qwen 2.5. The company claims that this updated model has surpassed DeepSeek-V, a popular AI model.

    According to reports, Alibaba released Qwen 2.5 on the first day of the Lunar New Year, a time when most Chinese people are on holiday with their families. This unusual timing may have been influenced by the recent rise of DeepSeek, a Chinese startup that has been making waves in the AI industry over the past few weeks. DeepSeek has not only gained global attention but has also created competition among local AI developers.

    Alibaba’s cloud division announced on its official WeChat account that Qwen 2.5 Max has outperformed several major AI models, including GPT-4.0, DeepSeek-V3, and LLaMA 3.1-405B. These models were developed by leading AI companies such as OpenAI and Meta.

    Since its launch on January 10, DeepSeek’s AI assistant has gained massive popularity. It quickly became the top-rated free app on Apple’s App Store in the United States, surpassing ChatGPT. This unexpected success has raised concerns among American tech companies.

    The rise of DeepSeek has pushed other Chinese AI companies to upgrade their models. Just two days after DeepSeek’s launch, ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, released an update for its flagship AI model. ByteDance claimed that its new AI, called AIM-E, performed better than Microsoft-backed OpenAI in several benchmark tests.

    With fierce competition in the AI industry, companies are racing to develop better and more advanced models. Alibaba’s Qwen 2.5 is the latest example of this ongoing battle for AI supremacy.
