May Go to Italy
Abdul Rahman, the Afghanistan Christian who faced capital charges for converting from Islam, has been released, and may find asylum in Italy:
An Afghan man who had faced the death penalty for converting from Islam to Christianity has been released from prison after the case was dropped, the justice minister said Tuesday. Italy's foreign minister will ask his government to grant 41-year-old Abdul Rahman asylum.
Foreign Minister Gianfranco Fini, who was among the first to speak out on the man's behalf, will ask for the permission at a Cabinet meeting on Wednesday, the Italian ministry said in a statement Tuesday.
The announcement came after the United Nations said Rahman has appealed for asylum outside Afghanistan and that the world body was working to find a country willing to take him.
Just yesterday he was crazy, today he's probably going to Italy to live. Crazy? Crazy like a fox!
