Camel Boy "Crucified"
Damare, a young slave boy, had his knees and feet nailed to a board and was left to die - just for attending a church service. Miraculously he survived and told The Voice of the Martyrs that he forgave his cruel tormenter, because Jesus was nailed and forgave him.

ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN (BosNewsLife) -- A key human rights group in Pakistan has expressed "grave concern" over government plans to introduce an anti-apostasy law under which those leaving Islam, including Christian coverts, could face the death penalty or life imprisonment.

In a statement monitored by BosNewsLife on Monday, May 14, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) said, "It is imperative that the authorities carefully consider any decision in this regard given the tendency to abuse laws in the country."

Iran:

Over the past two years, Iran’s harsh Shiite Muslim regime has continued to arrest, harass and intimidate dozens of citizens involved in the nation’s mushrooming house church movements.

One such movement confirmed last month that its indigenous groups of Iranian converts to Christianity are doubling in size every six months.
Converts from Islam are routinely subjected to both physical and psychological mistreatment while being held for days or weeks, usually in solitary confinement. Huge bail amounts are demanded for their release, under the threat of further detention or formal criminal prosecution if caught worshipping or spreading their faith.

The large number of Iranians embracing Christianity has been attributed in part to a number of radio stations and satellite television channels launched in the past five years broadcasting Christian programs in Farsi into the country 24 hours a day.
