The National Film and Video Censors Board (NFVCB) has intervened in the controversy surrounding the movie “Blood Brothers” due to a scene depicting the niqab being used in a robbery.

Following public outcry, the NFVCB contacted the film’s producers to address the concerns.

In a statement, Director-General Shaibu Husseini clarified that the movie has not been released or submitted for classification, and the board is taking steps to ensure that the film does not perpetuate harmful stereotypes or offend religious and cultural values.

The NFVCB reaffirmed its commitment to balancing freedom of expression with the need to protect societal sensitivities.
