Facebook, YouTube in Trouble over J&K Video

Facebook and YouTube are in trouble again, this time over a video showing four Kashmiri youths being paraded naked by uniformed personnel in Kashmir. The Union government of India is saying that the video is still not authenticated and agencies will investigate the matter.

Facebook and YouTube has been in trouble before when it was banned in Pakistan over "Everybody Draw Mohammed Day" controversy. The Home Minister, P Chidambaram, said “No one has been able to authenticate the video so far. Until it is authenticated and the persons identified, I think it would be unsafe to rely on such video.”

Jammu and Kashmir police says it has officially filed a case against the two websites for uploading the video. "A formal case is being registered against the YouTube and Facebook networks and investigation is on to locate the persons responsible for uploading this baseless and malicious clip. Action shall also be taken against other organizations who tried to propagate it," a police spokesman said, reports IBN Live.
