Dear Friend,
Freeing Asia Bibi from prison, for an act that should never be considered a crime, will actually endanger her life! We need
Your Support to Free her AND LET HER LEAVE PAKISTAN!
Asia Bibi spent 8 years in a Pakistani jail for blasphemy. Finally exonerated, she was released from jail but has been refused permission to leave the country.
It's imperative that Canadians stand up for religious freedom, free speech, and the freeing of Asia Bibi in Pakistan with a plan to bring her safely to Canada. Without the world looking on, without political intervention, without Your support, Asia Bibi and even the judges who acquitted her, could be murdered by an Islamist motivated mob in Pakistan.
Help get attention to her plight, participate in a rally in Toronto, Friday November 9th at the Pakistani Consulate. Story and Details below.
Dear Andria,
Last week, Asia Bibi was finally acquitted in Pakistan after over eight years of court proceedings. She has been in prison since June 16, 2009, accused of the crime of blaspheming the Islamic "prophet" Mohammed.
Her Muslim co-workers, who chided her for being a Christian, had brought the accusation after an argument over a drinking vessel. Asia denies the charge.
Since her incarceration, we have fought for Asia's freedom, supported her family, and raised funds to defend this Christian mother.
However, although she has now been acquitted, her problems are not over.
Her acquittal has provoked a wave of Muslim violence throughout Pakistan that has already left several dead. Asia Bibi's lawyer has had to flee the country in order not to be killed. The situation is more delicate than ever.
We, at CitizenGO, wish to help take Asia Bibi and her family out of the country and give them a better life. However, they are now prohibited from leaving Pakistan, and her court case might be reviewed.
That is why we are planning two initiatives.
ONE, we have launched a new petition asking the Pakistani Prime Minister, Imran Khan, to intercede as soon as possible so that Asia and her family can leave, and that the necessary security measures will be taken to keep them alive.
TWO, we are planning rallies and prayer vigils at Pakistani embassies all over the globe. We hope to make a powerful impact that can not be ignored by Prime Minister Khan.
In the Toronto area, we will be gathering in front of the Pakistan consulate on Friday, November 9th from 12 noon to 1 PM. If you are in the GTA, please feel free to join us. A small number of signs will be provided.
Location of Toronto Area Rally & Vigil: Pakistani Consulate, 7880 Keele Street, Vaughan, Ontario L4K 4G7. We will gather along Keele St. for a peaceful, prayerful witness.
Please remember to sign our latest petition and also join us for one hour in support of Asia on Friday in Toronto (if you are able). |
Let Asia Bibi Leave!
TO: Imran Khan, Prime Minister of Pakistan.
The recent acquittal of Asia Bibi in the case of her unjust blasphemy conviction has encouraged the hearts of millions of people around the world. The perseverance of this Christian woman, who has been imprisoned for so many years, is an example to many believers.
But as you know, the worst is yet to come. Her and her family's lives are in grave danger as the Tehreek-e-Labbaik party and its supporters are not willing to accept the court ruling.
Only you can ensure that Asia Bibi and her family are able to freely leave the country. Only you can ensure that the necessary security measures are taken to safeguard their lives until then.
Remember that there are millions of people counting on you, praying that you will do the right thing in this situation.
Please protect the lives of this Christian woman and her family. Step up and set an example for the entire world, especially the leaders in your region.
