Asia Bibi Update

June 27, 2013

Earlier this month Asia Bibi's husband, Ashiq, was able to visit her
in jail. At the time of his visit Asia was sick and receiving
treatment from the jail doctor. She complained of a lot of pain in her
legs, shoulders and arms.

Ashiq told Asia, "Take good care for your health and recover soon. The
children are worried for you. They are daily praying for your good
health and soon release."

Asia said she is regularly praying in jail for her release and
requested VOM readers to pray with her.

Several days after Ashiq's visit to the prison, Asia was transferred
from Sheikhupura jail to Multan jail. This change means that, in order
for her family to visit her, they will have to travel around five
hours instead of only one hour. The extra travel also raises security
concerns for the family.

Asia's daughters in particular were discouraged by the news of their
mother's transfer.

Please pray for Asia Bibi. Pray for healing on her body, encouragement
to her spirit and for her release from prison. Pray also for Ashiq and
their daughters.

You can write letters of encouragement to Asia through Prisoner Alert.
The site has been updated with her new prison address. Invite your
friends to sign a petition to the Pakistani government on her behalf
