British Imam’s Daughter Becomes Christian; Fears Her Family Will Kill Her

December 6, 2007

The 32 year old daughter of a British imam is under police protection after her family made death threats against her for becoming a Christian.  That, according to The Times of London. 

The Times writes that the woman, who actually converted to Christianity 15 years a go to escape an arranged marriage, has since moved 45 times to avoid being found by her family. She recently received a threatening text message from her brother.

The Times notes a study which found that 36 percent of British Muslims between 16 and 24 believe those who convert to another religion should be killed.

An Anglican Bishop says the "freedom to believe" is under threat in Britain because of Islamic apostasy laws.
