Modern Day Miracle: Jailed Christian Released On Bail

Voice of the Martyrs Australia has reported some good news concerning a Pakistan Christian Yousaf Masih, 60, who  was arrested on June 28 from the Lalkurti area in Nowshera following an allegation that he had deliberately burnt pages of the Koran.

After being tortured and beaten many were concerned for Masih's health.  Many prayed, and now miraculously he has been released on bail from jail on Aug. 6 on a bond of $4200.

Here's more from the VOM article:

The news release from APMA stated that when Masih was informed about his impending freedom, "he fell down on his knees and loudly said, "Hallelujah". He then stood up and hugged us. We took him from Central Jail in Peshawar to a location where his family was waiting for him".

Speaking in the news release, an APMA official called Masih’s release on bail "a great miracle". He added, "It is for the first time in Pakistan that (someone accused of blasphemy) is released from jail on bail in a very short span ... Such type of blasphemy cases take years for any kind of outcome. The judges are reluctant to hear such cases due to threats. Many Christian have been killed extra judicially, and many victim of blasphemy law are in jails, living in the situation of life and death and waiting for trial."
