Bangladesh imposes YouTube block

The video-sharing web site YouTube has been blocked by Bangladesh after a recording of a meeting between the PM and army officers was posted.

The meeting took place two days after a mutiny by border guards in Dhaka that left more than 70 people dead.

The recordings cover about 40 minutes of a three-hour meeting and reveal how angry many in the military were at the government's handling of the crisis.

YouTube had been blocked in the "national interest", officials said.

Hundreds of guardsmen have been arrested in connection with the mutiny but hundreds more are still being sought.

Man there are so many traitors nowadays. I wonder who actually put up the video on youtube.

Man i dont thin tat is traitorous at all .The people have the rite to know wats happenin in their own country.And they just cant ban everythn tat they dnt like
its against the rite to information
he cud hav bin calld traitor if he wud hav bombed th parliament or smthn bt tats nt at al traitorus

I agree with you nitro. Bangladesh shoudn't have banned youtube

I dont believe the matter was confidential but it is was a matter of general importance.
Its not any private matter about the PM family or somethn but was a matter btwen army and PM which the public has every rite 2 know.

But not to let the entire world know.
