John, This young Christian was just 16 years old when he was falsely accused and arrested for blasphemy. Now he will hang for his Christian faith unless we can overturn his death sentence. We're headed to the U.N. in just weeks to take major action.
Shahzad was sentenced to death by hanging after a radical Muslim group manufactured phony charges against him and pressured the judge into having him executed. But Shahzad is not alone. Christians in Pakistan face unthinkable atrocities for their faith, and the judicial system often ignores the facts and the law and caves in to the demands of angry Muslim mobs. Our legal team on the ground in Pakistan has appealed, recently filing an emergency motion to expedite Shahzad's case. We also JUST filed a critical written submission to the U.N. Human Rights Council, and our team is preparing to travel to Geneva in just weeks to present a vital oral intervention. This is the ultimate human rights violation, and we will take his case all the way to Pakistan's Supreme Court – where we have successfully helped free Christians on death row before. But we urgently need you to take action with us before it is too late for Shahzad. Sign Petition: Free Christian From Impending Death.
