Abdul Rahman Released
The charges were dropped against him, and then it was announced by the UN that Abdul Rahman was seeking asylum in another country. Then came the announcement that he had been released! "We released him last night because the prosecutors told us to," he said. "His family was there when he was freed, but I don't know where he was taken." Deputy Attorney General Mohammed Eshak Aloko told the AP that prosecutors had issued a letter calling for Rahman's release because "he was mentally unfit to stand trial." He also said he did not know where he was being held. He said Rahman may be sent overseas for medical treatment. Hours earlier, hundreds of clerics, students and others chanting "Death to Christians!" marched through the northern Afghan Mazar-i-Sharif to protest the court's decision Sunday to dismiss the case.
Prayers still needed, obviously!
