LONDON, March 14 (Reuters) - Anheuser-Busch InBev's shares were suspended from trading on Thursday pending the publication of a press release, Belgium's Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) said without elaborating.

The news comes after U.S. cigarette maker Altria said on Wednesday it would cut its around 10% stake in AB InBev, the world's largest brewer, selling around 35 million shares. AB InBev plans to buy back $200 million worth of shares. (Reporting by Emma Rumney; editing by Jason Neely)
