Da Vinci Code banned in Pakistan
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Saturday banned cinemas from showing the movie “The Da Vinci Code” following protests by the country’s minority Christian community.
Although the film has not been screened in any theatre in Pakistan, a government announcement said authorities decided to ban it out of respect for the feelings of Christians, some of whom have said the movie is insulting. Minister for Culture Ghulam Jamal said the movie was banned as it contained blasphemous material on Jesus Christ. staff report
