About this sermon
There are new developments in the case of a Christian woman in Pakistan sentenced to death under the country's stringent blasphemy laws. A Christian charity and other legal advocates say they will appeal the conviction. Former nurse Shagufta Kiran, a mother of 4, was also fined $1,000. She is accused of sharing comments on social media that were disrespectful of the prophet Mohammad. Her lawyers say the Christian woman did not write the content that was later shared in a group called "pure discussions". Outreach Director for Aid to the Church in Need, Ed Clancy, joins to tell us more about the incident that led to the blasphemy charge and death sentence for the Christian mother of 4. Clancy shares whether there has been any reaction from the international community to the verdict and what he would like to see from the State Department or even the Vatican. Clancy discusses what happens next and whether he is optimistic the appeal will be successful and the conviction overturned. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
