[Asia News Communication = Reporter Reakkana] Facebook's suspension of President Donald Trump's account is to be reviewed by its new Oversight Board. BBC said the company set up the board, which it says is independent, last year, to rule on controversial moderation decisions.
 
Mr Trump, whose account was frozen "indefinitely" on 7 January, will be able to submit a user statement to a five-member case-review panel. Its ruling will be binding and apply to Instagram also. Twitter has already given Mr Trump an outright ban. After Pro-Trump protesters stormed the US legislature, Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg said: "We believe the risks of allowing the president to continue to use our service during this period are simply too great."
 
On Thursday, the Oversight Board said it had been "closely following events in the United States and Facebook's response to them. "A decision by the board on this case will be binding on Facebook and determine whether Mr. Trump's suspension from access to Facebook and Instagram for an indefinite amount of time is overturned." The case will be assigned to a five-member case review panel. Mr. Trump will have the ability to submit a user statement explaining why he believes the suspension should be overturned.
