Many users are still facing problems in accessing Facebook and Messenger since Friday afternoon.

"We are aware that our services have been restricted in Bangladesh. We are working to understand more and hope to have full access restored as soon as possible," a Facebook spokesperson told The Business Standard.

However, Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) Vice Chairman Subrata Roy told Media, "It's a technical problem. We do not know what the specific problem is, but access to the sites has not been blocked."

Some netizens have also reported that their internet services have become slow.

The problem with the social media giant started here after Islamist groups clashed with cops and ruling party men in some parts of the country in protest against the Bangladesh visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
