Grant asylum to Meriam Yehya Ibrahim Ishag and her family.
The issue
This Sudanese woman is eight months pregnant and has a 20 month old child. She has been sentenced to death by a Sudanese court for apostasy - changing her religion. It is claimed that she has changed religion from Islam to Christianity and has been sentenced to death as a consequence. This woman has been sentenced to death for her religious choice. This is an abhorrent violation of international human rights and we must not stand by and allow the sentence to be carried out.
