Pakistan's Aasia Bibi is free at last

Aasia Bibi, the Christian woman who spent nearly a decade on death row for a false blasphemy accusation, is free at last. The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Tuesday dismissed a review petition against its October 2018 verdict that had overturned the conviction of Aasia Bibi. The rejection of the petition has removed the last legal hurdle in the years-long fake blasphemy case and potentially paved the way for Bibi to leave the country to join her family in exile in Canada.
