Mauritius lifted restrictions on social media access imposed less than 48 hours prior due to what the government called cyber-terrorism risks.

Mauritius Telecom said on Saturday all social media platforms were once again "fully accessible", while Prime Minister Pravind Kumar Jugnauth said an inquiry was underway and arrests had been made, though he did not provide details. The government was also in discussions with social media companies, he added, according to a broadcast on Facebook by Wazaa FM radio.
