According to Dawn News, senior official in the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) believes that YouTube became accessible through certain Internet Service Providers (ISPs) due to a technical fault.

The minister said that the news of unblocking will be announced officially.

Rehman said that the issue was being addressed in the cyber crime bill and will be most likely approved by the government in two months.
