Sudan Death Sentence Woman Re-arrested less than 24hrs after Release


I feared this could happen and now my fears have been confirmed. The Sudanese Muslim woman who converted to Christianity and was sentenced to death but was just released after an appeal court overturned her sentence has been re-arrested, this time with her husband.

She was re-arrested less than 24 hours after her released. Meriam Ibrahim was arrested with her husband, Daniel Wani and their two children, Martin and Mayo who are two years and 2 weeks respectively.

The lawyer, Elshareef Ali Mohammed was with them at the time of the arrest. He said they were given no reason for their detention. They were arrested at the airport as they attempted to leave the country.

Mariem’s husband is a U.S. citizen and there are unconfirmed reports that they were probably heading to the United States.


That am sure is the reason why she was arrested. I feared this could happen and am not surprised it has.
