Facebook Voilates Freedome of Expression Right: Removed Hamza Abbasi Post on Kashmir Freedom Movement



World’s largest social media network, Facebook, has removed a post of Hamza Ali Abbasi in which he praised a pro-freedom fighter, Burhan Wani, of Indian-held Kashmir, the actor claimed.
In the removed post, Abbasi said: “Look at this man. He is not an ISI agent, he is not a Mullah inspired Pakistani funded militant. He is Burhan Wani Shaheed. A KASHMIRI who joined the freedom struggle of Kashmir when his brother was killed by Indian Army. If KASHMIR issue is not resolved according to the will of Kashmiris and UN Resolutions, we have another PALESTINE in the making right in our backyard. #IAmBurhanWani #BurhanWaniShaheed #Kashmir,” said the status update on Abbasi’s Facebook before it was removed.”
However, the Facebook administration not removed the post but also suspended the account of Hamza Ali Abbasi following the post. The account was restored later on.
In a tweet, Abbasi confirmed the removal of his Facebook post.
Afterwards, in a statement to media, the actor said that the flag bearers of “Freedom of Speech” reacted in an absurd way for raising a voice for the victims of Indian aggression.
It is noted in the recent times that Facebook is badly violating the freedom of expression by removing content related to Kashmir freedom movement. This is extremely unacceptable as there is other portals which can substitute Facebook particularly in the Muslim world
