Meriam Ibrahim obtained her freedom and left Sudan, but the attorneys who worked on her case are being told they cannot leave the country. Here’s my latest article for WORLD:
Meriam Ibrahim may be safely living in the United States, but several attorneys who fought for her freedom in Sudan now face new repercussions for their work on her case.
According to Morning Star News (MSN), Sudan banned five lawyers involved with Ibrahim’s case from leaving the country after another attorney, Iman Hassan, complained they had “tarnished the image of Sudan by allowing human rights organizations to put pressure on the government.” The lawyers are not Christians but work against injustice and for the freedom of the country’s religious minorities.
