In September 2012, several Muslim countries Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Sudan blocked access to YouTube following controversy over a 14 minute trailer for the film Innocence of Muslims which had been posted on the site. Russia also blocked access to YouTube over the same controversy. The trailer was blamed for violent protests in Libya and Egypt. YouTube stated that "This video – which is widely available on the Web – is clearly within our guidelines and so will stay on YouTube. However, given the very difficult situation in Libya and Egypt we have temporarily restricted access in both countries.Recently Chief Justice of Pakistan Rehman Malik announced to lift ban on youtube within 24 hours. After that the Institute of Information Technology sent request as a summery to prime minister of Pakistan.
