We the People – Asia Bibi is at extreme risk of being hunted down and killed for the crime of “Blasphemy” in Pakistan. She was recently freed after eight years on death row. Bibi was accused as a result of an altercation resulting from her drinking water from the same cup as her Muslim co-workers. A petition for U.S. asylum is available here.
The Pakistani Supreme Court ruled that there was no basis to support the charges against her and that she should be released. Unfortunately, religious fundamentalists do not agree and are demanding that she be hung. Bibi, 53, a Pakistani Christian, along with her family, are in hiding in Pakistan. . . The United States should grant her and her family asylum.
