The family of Meriam Ibrahim, a Sudanese woman sentenced to death on false charges of apostasy, is still being detained in Sudan because her own relatives have brought new charges against her.
If a pending appeal in the case of the imprisoned Sudanese doctor, Meriam Ibrahim, is not successful, she will soon have to endure 100 lashes - which are designed to literally take skin off the body - as punishment for trumped up adultery charges.
International condemnation has compelled Sudanese authorities to intervene in what could be the release Meriam Ibrahim, the Christian mother who was pregnant when she was arrested and sentenced to death for apostasy.
