A shorter URL for the above link: . http://tinyurl.com/l2r8fm3 . .NEW YORK (AP) Italy is working to save the life of a pregnant Sudanese woman who was sentenced to death for refusing to recant her Christian faith, and is in contact with her lawyers as well as Sudanese authorities, the Italian foreign minister said Friday.
. snip .The United States, the United Nations and Amnesty International among others have condemned the sentence. Italian Foreign Minister Federica Mogherini said she has pressed the case with Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in a meeting at U.N. headquarters in New York.
."We have been following the case through our embassy since before her sentence was made public," Mogherini said.
.Italy is a strong opponent of the death penalty, much like other countries in Western Europe that abolished capital punishment a long time ago. Among other initiatives, it is pushing a General Assembly resolution calling for a worldwide moratorium on the death penalty.
. snip .U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric said Friday the organization's human rights arm was deeply concerned about Ibrahim's physical and mental well-being, and that of her son, and urged Sudan "to meet its obligations under international law to protect the right to freedom of religion."
