||
Facebook has assured Pakistan that concerns about blasphemous content on the social media site will be addressed and a company delegation will visit this week to discuss the issue with the government, the interior minister said on Tuesday. Blasphemy is a criminal offense in the strictly Islamic country and can carry the death penalty. | Blasphemy is "impious utterance or action concerning God or sacred things." Facebook is helping Pakistan 'tackle concerns' about blasphemy, a crime for which the offender may be killed by the government. | |
