ICC’s Regional Manager, William Stark, said,<br />
“We here at ICC are excited to see that Asia’s<br />
acquittal has been upheld. Our prayers now<br />
are with Asia and her family as they are in<br />
extreme danger until they are safely out of<br />
Pakistan. We are also very concerned for the<br />
safety of Pakistan’s <strong>Christian</strong> community at<br />

forces will be able to protect all Pakistani<br />
<strong>Christian</strong>s as extremists will likely seek<br />
revenge against their community.”<br />
