Meriam Ibrahim, Woman Freed From Sudan, Announces Plans To Settle In New Hampshire

Religion News Service, Josephine McKenna

ROME (RNS) Meriam Ibrahim, the Sudanese Christian who was flown to Rome after her death sentence was overturned, is now dreaming of building a future in the U.S.

“We will begin a new life,” Ibrahim told Antonella Napoli, head of Italians for Darfur, according to the daily La Repubblica.

“My husband, a chemist, lost his job because of my event. Now we will go to New Hampshire where my brother-in-law Gabriel lives. They will help us. We will be all together as a true family.”

Ibrahim, 27, was spared a death sentence for apostasy and then barred from leaving Sudan.
