As We informed you few days ago that Saudi Arab and some other Arab Countries are going to Shut Down BlackBerry Messaging Service from This Friday so Saudi Government and some other Arab Countries has take down this Service Yesterday. 3 carriers that are working in Saudi Arabia closed the BlackBerry Messaging Service as the Friday started.

We informed you earlier that Differences between BlackBerry and Saudi Government started taking place on Data Monitoring issue after which this step is taken. Government of Saudi Arabia has said in its official statement that BlackBerry was not able to meet regulatory requirements of the commission and it was also not in accordance with the regulations and conditions of licenses that are issued due to which their Service is taken down.  In case of Violation by any carrier it will have to face a big Fine.
