(Worthy News) – Pakistan’s Supreme Court today upheld its acquittal of Christian mother Aasiya Noreen (better known as Asia Bibi), leaving her free to leave the country after spending nine years on death row in Pakistan’s most high-profile blasphemy case.

The mother of two children and stepmother to three others has been in protective custody since her release from prison on Nov. 7. She was acquitted on Oct. 31.

Her attorney, Saiful Malook, told Morning Star News that she and her husband, Ashiq Masih, will likely leave Pakistan for Canada “tonight or in the next couple of days.” [ Source: Morningstar News (Read More…) ]
