Asia Bibi: Deal To End Pakistan Protests Over Blasphemy Case
// Speaking to the BBC this week, her lawyer said she would need to move to a Western country for her own safety. Several countries have offered her asylum.//
…but ….
Pakistan's authorities have struck a deal with a hard-line Islamist party to end the protest over her acquittal ….
As part of the deal, Asia Bibi will be barred from leaving the country, though it is unclear for how long.
The protesters will also be able to file an appeal to the Supreme Court over its decision to release her.
She was convicted in 2010 of insulting the Prophet Muhammad, but was acquitted earlier this week.
Pakistani Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry defended the agreement against allegations the government was capitulating to extremists://

Capitulation to extremists? Clearly. What now for Asia Bibi?

Not just "them". Some of the Sharia blasphemy laws which are incorporated in the Pakistani constitution(the bits about insulting the "Prophet o)f Islam" are part of Austrian criminal law as we saw in the case of Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff. As the conviction of ES has recently been upheld unanimously by the ECHR precedent has been set for the criminalisation of blasphemy against Islam throughout Europe.
