"Two Iraqi TV shows that sparked outrage by pranking celebrities with fake suicide vests and staged kidnappings have been suspended.
Regulators said that the programmes - Tony's Bullet and Raslan's Shooting - breached broadcast rules.
In one episode of Raslan's Shooting, an actress passed out in fear after having fake explosives strapped to her.
Viewers criticised the shows as cruel and tone-deaf, given the constant threat of militant violence in Iraq.
Islamic State has lost its territory in Iraq but continues to attack civilians and the military."
Can't believe these kind of shows were allowed to begin with in Iraq, of all places
