The Free Muslims Coalition condemns the sentencing to death of a Sudanese woman for apostasy

A Sudanese court has sentenced Mariam Ishag to death after she was accused of leaving Islam and marrying a Christian husband.

The decision to sentence the woman to death by hanging for "apostasy" is barbaric and the government of Sudan must be held accountable for its actions.

The Muslim community is saddened by yet another barbaric government that does not respect freedom of religion or freedom of thought. Only Muslims can change this behavior by opposing the government of Sudan and other governments that violate basic human rights.
