The last four of ten Muslim converts to Christianity, jailed for “despising Islam,” have been released from prison in Egypt. Released were two Tunisians, Fathi Ben Nejma and Ali Hammami; and two Moroccans, Hassan Zerhoundi and Abdul Hadi Haija. Six Egyptian converts to Christianity were released in August.
The four non-Egyptian converts were arrested April 24 while attending a Campus Crusade for Christ leadership training school in Egypt. Like their Egyptian counterparts, they were never formally charged. But authorities accused them of “despising Islam,” a charge used in Muslim countries against those who convert from Islam to Christianity.
Campus Crusade representative Don Beehlar said the four converts were released after Campus Crusade and several U.S. congressmen appealed to the Egyptian government.
