Recall that Meriam Ibrahim, the Sudanese woman sentenced to death for Apostasy, was re-arredted yesterday as she and her family were trying to leave Sudan. The story now is that she had been freed completely.



U.S. State Department said Meriam is now free, safe and secure but didn't make it clear if she'd will leave Sudan for the U.S, where she's expected to seek political asylum.

Sudanese officials later said they didn't arrest Meriam, that she was only detained over a “travel document issue” that was discovered at the airport but she's since been released and had boarded a flight out of Sudan today. Her whereabouts are currently unknown.
