-- KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) -- An Afghan appeals court overturned a death sentence Tuesday for a journalism student accused of blasphemy for asking questions in class about women's rights under Islam. But the judges still sentenced him to 20 years in prison.**********
In January, a lower court sentenced him to death in a trial critics have called flawed in part because Kambakhsh had no lawyer representing him.
Muslim clerics welcomed that court's decision and public demonstrations were held against the journalism student because of perceptions he had violated the tenets of Islam.
UPDATE: Oh-oh... this one brought out all the Moonbats...

Well, nonny-bot... I thought I was doing you a favour, but okay...
Hey, Robert... that's your cue.
Don't tell me you're gonna let nonny outspew you.

LAST WORD: The mask finally slips...
Curiously, this seems to be a recurring theme for my own personal (cough, cough) "anonymous" troll...
But, strangely enough... if you go into Canada411... there is no Simon J. Walter in the Waterloo area... hmmmm.
Of course... those of you who are late to the party might be asking... who is this mysterious "sjwalter"?
