Mauritius pre election analysis

The Mauritian government has come under fire for the November 1st social media ban which it later lifted after pressure from across all sectors of the country, ahead of the island's November 10th polls.

The government has said it imposed as a result of what it called a cyber-terrorism risk.

The restrictions were ordered by country's communications regulator following a wiretapping scandal that shook the country, where about 20 leaked conversations involving politicians, police, lawyers, journalists, and civil society members have surfaced on social media.
