"Kentucky’s Republican Senator Rand Paul is asking President Trump to grant asylum to Pakistani woman Asia Bibi, whose life is being threatened because of her Christian faith.
Eight years ago, Bibi was arrested after two Muslim women accused her of blasphemy following an altercation that was sparked from the Christian mother drinking out of a communal cup. Bibi was put in jail and sentenced to death. The 53-year-old sat in jail awaiting her death sentence up until she was acquitted last month in a landmark Supreme Court case for the predominantly Muslim nation.
Though Bibi’s released was seen as a positive landmark decision for many worldwide, the decision did not sit well with thousands of Islamic radicals in Pakistan. Islamic radicals quickly took to the streets in protest of the Supreme Court ruling and to demand the execution of Bibi and the Supreme Court judges who acquitted her.
Senator Rand Paul told CNN that he is concerned for her safety and fears that if her acquittal is overturned that she would not survive." CH
And all the people said, Amen... 1 Chronicles 16:36
