A fan who was watching the England v Australia ICC Champions Trophy 2025 match in Lahore stadium was assaulted and arrested by security officials for having an Indian flag in his possession. The incident happened during the CT 2025 match on February 22.

The security staff swiftly ejected a cricket fan who was waving the Indian flag in the stadium stands in the widely shared video.

The footage of the event, which has gone viral on social media, shows Pakistani officials taking the man away and removing the flag from his hands.

The man was arrested and reportedly assaulted by security guards at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore for displaying an Indian flag during a game, according to a Zee News report.

Here is the video:

Although the exact date of this occurrence is still unknown, it is not the only one that garnered social media notice. In addition to this, the Indian national song was performed before the start of the game as part of the national anthems.

Although there is no hard proof of the video's existence, it immediately caused a stir on social media, and Pakistani authorities have yet to make an official remark on the matter.

Social media users discussed whether the security personnel's actions were appropriate or if they were a reflection of Pakistan's long-standing animosity with India.
