First of all,blasphemy isnt freedom of speech.
Secondly, It happens all over the world that whoever breaks the law is punished, Aneeqa broke Pakistani law and sentencd to death.
If shes not willing to appeal the High Court. Why u nonsense being made against Pakistan?#SaveAneeqa— xavier (@thereallxavier) January 24, 2022
Thought is not a crime. Repealing laws that criminalise thinking will ensure our collective safety, progress and welfare.
Aneeqa does not deserve to die for thinking. #SaveAneeqa #AneeqaAteeq https://t.co/leXFI7vtH2— Avid Agnostic (@lifeisonceonly) January 23, 2022
