Facebook founder may face death penalty

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is in trouble again. Currently he is being investigated against blasphemy case which if convicted may lead to a death penalty.

Apparently, someone in Facebook against the Holy Prophet Mohammad, which was much to the dislike of the Pakistani authorities.

26 year old Facebook CEO Matk Zuckerberg, is currently being tried by the Pakistani court under the Pakistani penal code Section 295-C, which goes on to say: "Use of derogatory remark etc, in respect of the Holy Prophet, whoever by words, either spoken or written, or by visible representation, or by any imputation, innuendo, or insinuation, directly or indirectly, defiles the sacred name of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) shall be punished with death, or imprisonment for life, and shall also be liable for fine."

Along with, Pakistan has also banned major websites like Yahoo, MSN, Hotmail, Google, Amazon and Bing. You take away all these, you better take away access to the internet as such. Wouldn't make much of a difference.

I don't really understand the logic behind such a decision. Banning major sites or trying the founder of a website on court, just because some members of their site violated their rules, just doesnt seem right.

Instead of doing this, they could have simple asked the Facebook guys to ban the user from their site.

Well, every country has their own policy. I just hope it doesn't happen here.

What do you guys think about this?

By the way, the above poster is of the movie 'The Social Network', which is to be released this year, in which Facebook is playing a very big role. In fact the movie is about the founders of Facebook itself.
