New Delhi: Renowned Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasreen on Monday alleged that her Facebook account has been banned once again for seven days by the social media giant. Taking to Twitter, the author said: "Facebook banned me again for 7 days for telling the truth."
On March 16 this year, Nasreen had alleged that Facebook has barred her from using the platform for 24 hours. "#Facebook banned me for 24 hrs. My crime was I liked the decision of Aarong, a Bangladeshi handicrafts store, not hire a Jihadi who refused to follow the rules of Aarong, to shave off his beard to work as a salesman. Islamists have been protesting against Aarong," she tweeted.
While on March 17, she claimed that the Bangladeshi governments banned her books. "Governments ban my books, jihadists burn my books and threat booksellers not to sell my books. I've got only one platform to express my views in Bengali, that is #fb. But whenever I use my freedom to write on fb freely for my readers, fb bans me. No free speech for freethinkers," she said further in another tweet.
