Young Pakistani Christian girl accused of blasphemy for burning the Koran is freed

This is great news, but only if this girl and her family can be protected from the Muslim backlash.  If they cannot leave the counrty for some safe haven in the West they are sure to be murdered by the rabid Islamic mobs.  Only the bright spotlight of international pressure has saved this girl from death.

A young Christian girl accused burning pages of the Islam's holy book has been freed from a jail near the capital and taken by helicopter to a secret location in a dramatic operation.

The release of Rimsha Masih comes a day after a judge granted her bail.

Mushtaq Awan said Masih left the prison in Rawalpindi, a garrison city near Islamabad, this afternoon.

She has been held for a little over three weeks after neighbours accused her of violating the country's strict blasphemy law.

She was taken from the prison in an armoured vehicle and whisked to a waiting helicopter while covered with a sheet to protect her identity.

Her lawyers say they will now push to have the case against her thrown out entirely.

There are worries the child, reported to be between 11 and 16, could be in danger if she remains in her homeland.

In Pakistan the mere allegation of causing offence to Islam can mean death.

Those accused are sometimes killed even if they are found innocent by the courts.
