John,
Shahzad was merely a 16-year-old boy when he was arrested and accused of blasphemy; now this Christian has been sentenced to death for his faith.
We're taking urgent action at the U.N. to secure his freedom.
This young Christian will hang for his faith because a radical Muslim group made up the charges against him and badgered the judge into sentencing him to be executed.
But the sad reality is that Shahzad is not alone. Scores of Pakistani Christians face unthinkable persecution.
Our team on the ground in Pakistan is fighting for Shahzad (appealing his case) and working in courts across the country to defend persecuted Christians. Yesterday, we filed to present an emergency oral intervention at the U.N. Human Rights Council for another Christian on death row who we represent. Our team is preparing to travel to Geneva in just weeks to defend dying Christians facing the ultimate human rights violations.
And we will take these cases 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.
Sign Petition: Free Christian From Impending Death.
