Sudan retracts claim that woman sentenced to death will be freed

A few days ago, we heard that Meriam Ibrahim, the woman sentenced to death in Sudan for apostasy will soon be freed after the country's Foreign Minister Abdullahi Alzareg was quoted as saying that Sudan was committed to protecting the woman. But according to new reports, that's not happening as the Foreign Minister is now saying quotes attributed to him was taken out of context. 

The country has officially denied that Meriam would soon be released. Now they are saying Meriam's release will depend on whether a court accepted an appeal request made by her defence team.

A ministry statement said what Alazreg actually told media on Saturday was "that the defence team of the concerned citizen has appealed the verdict ... and if the appeals court rules in her favour, she will be released" and not that she will be released by the government because 'the government does not interfere in the work of the judiciary because it is an independent body."

Sudan is just like the Islamic region of Northern Nigeria. Their Doctrine is just to kill and shed Blood of Christians.
All Barbaric and Demonic laws in this World presently has to do with Islam.

***All Muslims are not Terrorists but all Terrorists are Muslims***.

I pray this Woman will not be killed. May Baba God Protect her.

Nawa oooo. Religion is not a do or die affair. I pray they free this woman once and for all. And if I were her and I were released, I would just quietly seek asylum in a neutral country.

Save MERIAM for the sake of her beautiful family if worse come to worse agree to change to Islam and relocate to where you can practice your faith without been harassed and you can bring your children up in the way of The Lord and see them grow. God bless you my sister

EDEE said...

Thought as much.People should be free to practice whatever religion they want.This is not fair

Unknown said...

God will fight for this woman and she will hold her peace! I ask God to please confort her in her present state and defend her beyond human and any justice understanding in Jesus name..

HOT-STEPER said...

She shld just hold on to ha new found faith, even if she dies bcos of it, she is a Martyr.Ha life is in God's hands & he alone is Omniscience.

Unknown said...

God almighty will fight for you and you shall hold your peace, may God comfort her and speak peace to her where she is presently, may God defend her and rescue her beyond the understanding of the justice or the muslims leaders in Sudan in Jesus name
