Many called for the death penalty to be reinstated following Asia Bibi's acquittal
The husband of a Pakistani Christian woman acquitted of blasphemy after eight years on death row has
pleaded for asylum from the UK, US or Canada.
Asia Bibi's husband, Ashiq Masih, said they were in great danger in Pakistan.
The Supreme Court overturned Asia Bibi's conviction on Wednesday, saying the case against her was
based on flimsy evidence.
Her acquittal sparked violent protests, and the government has now agreed to try to stop her leaving the
country.
On Saturday, her lawyer, Saif Mulook, fled Pakistan, saying he feared for his life.
Asia Noreen - commonly known as Asia Bibi - was convicted in 2010 of insulting the Prophet
Muhammad during a row with neighbours.
"I am requesting the prime minister of the UK help us and as far as possible grant us freedom," he said.

Asia Bibi's husband and daughter say they fear for their safety
Earlier, in an interview with German broadcaster DW, he said he and his family were "frightened" after
Pakistan's authorities struck a deal with the hardline Tehreek-i-Labaik (TLP) party in order to end protests
over Asia Bibi's acquittal.
As part of the agreement, officials will start proceedings to bar her from leaving the country.
The government will also not prevent protesters legally challenging the Supreme Court decision to release
her.
"The agreement has sent a shiver down my spine," Mr Masih told DW. "It is wrong to set a precedent in
which you pile pressure onto the judiciary."
"The current situation is very dangerous for us. We have no security and are hiding here and there,
frequently changing our location."
He added: "My wife, Asia Bibi, has already suffered greatly. She has spent 10 years in jail. My daughters
were dying to see her free, but now this review petition will prolong her plight."
UK MP Tom Tugendhat, who chairs the Foreign Affairs Committee in Parliament, said he had asked the
Home Office for an "urgent evaluation of the situation", the Guardian reported.
Violence against minorities is unacceptable. The treatment of Asia Bibi is vile. @ImranKhanPTI has a
decision to make: will he stand for the rule of law or mob rule? Time for leadership, Imran.

Report
Meanwhile, Pakistan's Information Minister Fawad Chaudry told the BBC that security had been "beefed
up" to protect Asia Bibi.
"Yes, there is a situation and we are dealing with it, but I assure you that her life is not in danger," he told
the BBC's Newshour programme.
He described the government's deal with the protesters as "firefighting", saying it helped to "resolve the
situation without resorting to violence".
The trial stems from an argument Asia Bibi had with a group of women in June 2009.
They were harvesting fruit when a row broke out about a bucket of water. The women said that because
she had used a cup, they could no longer touch it, as her faith had made it unclean.
Prosecutors alleged that in the row which followed, the women said Asia Bibi should convert to Islam
and that she made offensive comments about the Prophet Muhammad in response.
She was later beaten up at her home, during which her accusers say she confessed to blasphemy. She was
arrested after a police investigation.
In Wednesday's ruling, the Supreme Court said that the case was based on unreliable evidence and her
confession was delivered in front of a crowd "threatening to kill her".
Islam is Pakistan's national religion and underpins its legal system. Public support for the strict blasphemy
laws is strong.
Hard-line politicians have often backed severe punishments, partly as a way of shoring up their support
base.
But critics say the laws have often been used to get revenge after personal disputes, and that convictions
are based on thin evidence.
The vast majority of those convicted are Muslims or members of the Ahmadi community, but since the
1990s scores of Christians have been convicted. They make up just 1.6% of the population.
The Christian community has been targeted by numerous attacks in recent years, leaving many feeling
vulnerable to a climate of intolerance.
Since 1990, at least 65 people have reportedly been killed in Pakistan over claims of blasphemy.

Quiz: Can you match these pets to their pop star owner?
By Fraser McAlpine
The relationship between pop stars and animals is preposterously cute. Their social media accounts are
often densely showered with adorable images of puppies and kittens snuggling up to their famous owners.
And that's not counting those pets that are popular enough to have their own Instagram or Twitter feeds.
Iggy Pop has a cockatoo called Biggy Pop, Katy Perry has a cat called Kitty Purry, and the French artist
Sophie Calle managed to convince Bono, Pharrell Williams, Jarvis Cocker and Michael Stipe to pay
tribute to her recently deceased cat on a specially recorded album.
So any real fan will know their favourite singer's pets as well as they know their own. But do you?
