Berlin prepared to offer asylum to Aasia Bibi

Light of Truth

The German government is prepared to offer asylum to the Pakistani Christian Aasia Bibi. Ms Bibi was freed from prison in Pakistan’s Punjab province on 7 November after spending eight years on death row for alleged blasphemy. Muslim co-workers had accused her of insulting Muhammad during an argument when they accused her of contaminating a cup of water because she was a Christian drinking from it. Since her release was announced, Islamist mobs have brought Pakistani cities to a standstill, calling for her and the judges who ruled for her release to be beheaded. Prime Minister Imran Khan caved in to the mobs’ demands by forbidding her to leave the country and allowing an appeal against the Supreme Court ruling.
