Karachi papers shut for 'obscenity' - BBC
"The authorities in the Pakistani city of Karachi have shut down six newspapers and arrested 11 people, including some editors, on charges of obscenity and breaches of the press law. The move follows raids ordered by the home affairs department of the provincial government. The advisor for information, Salahuddin Haidar, said the newspapers had been publishing obscene pictures and had repeatedly been warned to stop spreading nudity and obscenity."
