Since I last contacted you, 19-year-old Fardos has been sentenced to 20 lashes and a large fine for being ‘indecently dressed’. She is one of a group of Christian students facing flogging after they were arrested outside their church by Sudanese police last month. The women were all wearing skirts and trousers.
Eight young women still face court hearings over their appearance. Ask officials in Sudan not to flog Fardos and to drop all charges against the women.
