DHAKA:
Bangladesh lifted a ban on Facebook on Sunday, a week after it blocked the popular social networking site over caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed and "obnoxious" images of its leaders.
The Bangladesh Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (BTRC) ordered the country's international Internet gateway providers to unblock the site after the US-based company agreed to remove the obnoxious images and content.
"The Facebook is now open," BTRC vice chairman Hasan Mahmud Delwar said.
