Heavily pregnant Meriam Yehya Ibrahim, also known by the Islamic name Adraf Al-Hadi Mohammed Abdullah, has been sentenced to 100 lashes and death by hanging by the neck by a Sudanese court for apostasy after she left Islam and married a Christian man.
She was convicted of adultery on the grounds that her marriage to a Christian man from South Sudan was void under Sudan's version of Islamic law, which says Muslim women cannot marry non-Muslims.
The woman was originally sentenced to death on Sunday but given until Thursday to return to Islam.
She calmly told the judge: "I am a Christian and I never committed apostasy."
Amnesty International said Meriam was raised as an Orthodox Christian, her mother's religion, because her father, a Muslim, was reportedly absent during her childhood.
Please sign this petition for for the sake of Meriam and her unborn child urging The US and UK governments to put pressure on the President of Sudan to free Meriam. As she was born and raised as an Orthodox Christian, she can't be guilty of apostasing from Islam and is certainly not guilty of adultery.
