Renowned Pakistani fashion designer Maria B has sparked a controversy after exposing what she describes as a disturbing private party in Lahore. The celebrated designer, known for her luxury clothing brand and outspoken views, took to Instagram to share shocking videos and images allegedly sent to her by children who attended the event. The content reportedly depicted devil masks, drag shows, red lighting, and upside-down writings, which Maria B condemned as “vulgar” and linked to Illuminati influence.

In her impassioned statement, Maria B claimed the event promoted “satanic themes” and hidden messages, drawing parallels to the people of Lut mentioned in the Quran, whom she referenced as a cautionary tale of moral corruption. “This is destroying Pakistan’s values,” she declared, expressing alarm over the potential impact on the country’s youth. Her bold stance has resonated with many supporters, who have praised her courage for speaking out against what they see as a threat to cultural and religious norms.
The designer’s revelations have prompted swift action, with Lahore police launching an investigation into the event following the public outcry. Maria B’s claims have also sparked heated debates on social media, with fans lauding her for raising awareness while critics question the validity of her accusations.
The controversy escalated when the Punjab government ordered arrests after the videos, purportedly involving 50-60 individuals, including transgender persons, went viral. According to the first information report (FIR) filed at Naseerabad police station, the footage, dated August 1, 2025, contained “explicit content,” prompting charges under sections 292, 292-A, and 294 of the Pakistan Penal Code and Section 6 of the Sound System Act. Deputy Inspector General of Police (Operations) Lahore, Faisal Kamran, emphasized that “promoting obscenity under the guise of a party or photoshoot is a serious legal offence” and vowed to bring all involved to justice. He also noted that a screening of the banned film Joyland, featuring a transgender love affair, was halted in Lahore on August 17, 2025, at an alternative venue.
However, a Lahore magistrate dismissed the case against the accused transgender persons. The court order stated that “no incriminating material” connected the accused to the alleged offences, and the request for a 10-day physical remand was denied.
The order highlighted procedural issues, noting that no private witnesses were involved during the police raid, no statements were recorded, and no permission for raiding a private place was documented. The magistrate concluded that the accusations appeared to be based on “forged and concocted facts,” leading to the discharge of all accused, represented by lawyer Haider Butt.
Maria B., no stranger to controversy, has previously clashed with activists over issues like feminism and LGBTQ rights, including her vocal opposition to the Aurat March and the film Joyland.
