Trudeau declines to say if Asia Bibi in Canada due to ‘security issues’
|
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau declined Wednesday to confirm whether Asia Bibi, the Christian woman at the center of a decade-long blasphemy row in Pakistain, has arrived in Canada.
"There are sensitive privacy issues and security issues on this and so I can’t comment," Trudeau told news hounds outside parliament after Bibi’s lawyer Saif ul Mulook and multiple security sources in Pakistain told AFP that Bibi had gone to Canada.
Bibi ‐ a laborer from Pakistain’s central Punjab
1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard
2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers
3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots....
province ‐ was first convicted of blasphemy in 2010 and was on death row until her acquittal last year.
Her case has drawn worldwide attention to religious extremism in Pakistain, where the saga has sparked violent demonstrations and high-profile liquidations.
She has technically been free to leave Pakistain since January when the Supreme Court dismissed a legal challenge to her acquittal in October but awaited an asylum deal in a third country.
In November Trudeau said Ottawa was holding talks with Pakistain about bringing her to Canada.
On Wednesday British Prime Minister Theresa May appeared to confirm that Canada was her destination, saying its asylum offer was "right and appropriate."
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also said in a statement that she had "safely reunited with her family."
