Pakistan says Facebook vows to tackle concerns over blasphemous content

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.
