on Tuesday reaffirmed his government's resolve to respect the Supreme Court's judgement in the case of Aasia Bibi, a Christian woman recently freed from prison after her blasphemy conviction was overturned.
"As citizens of Pakistain, Aasia Bibi and her family are entitled to all rights as guaranteed by the Constitution of Pakistain," the premier told European Parliament President Antonio Tajani, who had telephoned Khan.
According to a blurb issued by the Prime Minister's Office, Tajani thanked Khan for ensuring the safety and security of Bibi and her family.
Assuring the prime minister of the EU Parliament's cooperation with the Pak government, Tajani said that a debate on Bibi scheduled to be held in the EU Parliament had been postponed.
Bibi has been blocked from leaving Pakistain after the overturning of her conviction prompted a wave of protests by religiopolitical groups.
