Relatives Of Meriam Ibrahim Send her To Court Again

Muslim relatives of the Sudanese Christian woman, Meriam Yahia Ibrahim Ishag, 26 who was charged for apostasy are taking her to court to try to prove she belongs to their family.

The complainants are the same people who laid the charge against her through which she was  sentenced to death in May for apostasy from Islam.

An appeals court later quashed the verdict and sentence.

Her case raised questions of religious freedom and sparked deep concern among Western governments and human rights activists.

Neither Ishag nor her lawyers have yet received documents confirming when the case will be heard but her lawyer thinks the court will dismiss the case.
