  • Indicate your deep belief that no person should be imprisoned for their faith or their free expression of ideas or beliefs.
  • Express that freedom of speech and religion are marks of a just and civil society.
  • Indicate that the Prime Minister's own official website cites “his love for the people is manifest when he reaches out to the poor and the oppressed to redress their grievances in their hour of distress.” In the spirit of that expression, urge Prime Minister Sharif to do all in his power to aid Asia Bibi in her hour of distress and return this wife and mother to her children.
