Asia Bibi, a Pakistani Christian woman has been sentenced to death for blasphemy. She has been held in prison for more than a year and Christian groups around the world have begun to protest the sentence, handed down only this week after a trial.

Christian and secular media outlets are reporting that Bibi, a 45 year-old wife and mother was set upon by a crowd of Muslim co-workers. Great Britain’s Daily Telegraph reported „The police were under pressure from this Muslim mob, including clerics, asking for Asia to be killed because she had spoken ill of the Prophet Mohammed.“
