URGENT: Halt Woman's Execution for 'Witchcraft'
To Those Who Share Our Deep Concern:
Please join us in calling for the immediate pardon and release of FAWZA FALIH, a Saudi Arabian woman who has been sentenced to death by beheading for the alleged crime of “witchcraft." As Human Rights Watch has declared, the conviction of Fawza Falih is a travesty of justice.
A letter to His Royal Highness King Abdullah has been drafted and signed by clergy and members of various faith traditions. The letter may be read online where you may also sign it. We're sorry to have to ask this, but PLEASE if you are Pagan or Wiccan, we would appreciate it if you do not make reference to that because, sadly, this will only make Fawza Falih's situation worse -it is the reason, after all, that she is sentenced to beheading. As times is of the essence, please do so as soon as possible at:
