According to the news sources Express News, Interior ministry has informed Islamabad High Court (IHC) that on their request Facebook has removed 85% of the content related to blasphemy in Pakistan.

During the hearing in the court, Interior secretary Arif Khan has told IHC that Facebook has taken their requests positively and removed almost 85% of the content from the social networking site. He further added, now there is only 15% of the content remaining. He also said that banning Facebook is not the solution to tackle these kinds of issues.
