Youtube has Finally blocked in Pakistan – Allah o Akbar



Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf has ordered immediate blocking of video sharing site YouTube in Pakistan, Express News reported on Monday.
He said blasphemous content cannot be tolerated under any circumstances.
The decision to block the website was taken after YouTube denied to remove the anti-Islam film.
Earlier, the Interior, Religious and Information Technology Ministry have recommended a complete ban on YouTube.
The ministries also recommended that the summary by an inter-ministrial committee on the matter should also be forwarded to the prime minister.
Earlier during the day, the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA), following the Supreme Court’s orders, blocked 753 links leading to the anti-Islam film on YouTube. The director general of PTA said that almost 100 new clips of the anti-Islam film are proliferated on YouTube every day.
The recently film on YouTube has sparked violent anti-US protests across the Muslim world.
