Doors closed for YouTube in Bangladesh

YouTube doors are closed in Bangladesh after the letter sent by the government which urge Google to remove the anti-Islam video produced in the US which depicts Prophet Muhammad as fraud, a womaniser, and a madman.

On Sunday, the chief of the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission said the government sent a letter to Google, which owns YouTube, urging it to remove the video. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina made the same request.

Flags of the US and Israel were burnt by Bangladesh people against anti-Islamic film. To control this violence, Google has blocked access to the video in Libya and Egypt following violence there, and in Indonesia and India because it says the video broke laws in those countries.
