Twitter suspends Pak cleric's account

Twitter suspended the account of a ultra-right Pakistani cleric on Sunday following inflammatory statements targeting the judiciary, prime minister, and military after the acquittal of a Christian woman accused of blasphemy, the government said. Cleric Khadim Hussain Rizvi's Tehreek-e-Labbaik (TLP) party blocked off major roads for three days last week and threatened the Supreme Court judges who acquitted Asia Bibi on Wednesday.
