From the New York Daily News:
A distraught and desperate husband who traveled from New Hampshire to Sudan has been allowed to visit his pregnant wife on death row, only to find her shackled in chains.
Meriam Ibrahim, 26, was sentenced to death last week by a Sudanese court in Khartoum after being convicted of apostasy. The Christian woman, who is eight months pregnant, had refused to denounce her religion.
Her husband, Daniel Wani, arrived in Sudan Monday after leaving New England.
"Her feet are shackled. Her legs are swollen,” Tina Ramirez, executive director of Hardwired, a U.S.-based advocacy group against religious persecution, told the Daily News. “It’s just outrageous. She’s eight and a-half months pregnant.”
Wani is appealing his wife's execution, which officials said won't be held until Ibrahim gives birth and nurses her infant.
The couple's 18-month-old son, Martin, is with her in prison. The husband and wife, who are both Christian, have several businesses, including a farm in Khartoum....
She was arrested last year after her father's family claimed she was born a Muslim, but married a Christian. She had been released, pending her trial, but was imprisoned in February on an added charge of apostasy, after saying in court that she has been a Christian all her life.
She was reared by her mother.
"I was never a Muslim," she told the Sudanese high court. "I was raised a Christian from the start."
Ramirez told The News Wani had been trying to get a U.S. visa for his wife, but has been unsuccessful.

Of course, the Islamic terrorist group, CAIR, mentions nothing about this on their web site. Bunch of thug cowardly Islamist terrorists they are.
Here's a hint to President Obama: If you want to prove that you are not a radical Muslim and care about women, take up this woman's cause. Demand that she be freed immediately and if Sudan doesn't free her immediately, I would support you sending in the Marines to free her.
So, President Obama, what side are you on?
The side of radical Islamists?
Or the side of this poor woman and her family?
The choice is yours, Barack, be a man and help her or be a coward and do nothing (and just speaking words don't do crap for her)
So, man up President Obama and do something worthwhile with your sorry little ass.
Something tells me, sadly, Obama is going to side with the radicals and end up being a coward.
