Lahore: Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has written a letter to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg seeking a ban on Islamophobic content on the scoial networking site, citing increase in radicalisation of Muslims.
The Pak PM took to Twitter, on Monday to inform about the same and shared the letter stating that growing Islamophobia is encouraging extremism and violence across the work, especially through social media platforms such as Facebook.
“I appreciate your taking the step to rightly ban any posting that criticises or questions the Holocaust, which was the culmination of the Nazi pogrom of the Jews in Germany and across Europe as Nazis spread across Europe,” Imran Khan said in his letter to Facebook.
“I would ask you to place a similar ban on Islamophobia and hate against Islam for Facebook that you have put in place for the Holocaust,” Imran Khan wrote while accusing India and France of discriminating against Muslims.
