Deserted Indian embassy portal becomes porn site
Dubai, June 25: A Web portal which once belonged to the Indian embassy in Ba-hrain has now turned into a porn site with a local telecom services provider blaming the mission for the lapse.
The teen porn website, located at www.Indianembassy-bah.com [1], was used by the Indian embassy before it moved to www.Indianembassybahrain.com [2] in 2009. “The embassy should not have let the name go and should have secured it, even if they had to change the administrator,” said an official of Batelco, the local telecom services provider. He said Batelco cannot help, since it was only responsible for registering domain na-mes ending in .Bh. —PTI
