A deleted Facebook comment brought a death sentence. A Saudi court has now overturned it
A Saudi court overturned the death sentence of Sri Lankan migrant worker Anojan Sivarasa, who faced execution for a deleted Facebook comment. The Supreme Court's decision followed diplomatic efforts from Sri Lanka after Sivarasa was initially sentenced for insulting Islam during a social media dispute. This ruling brings significant relief to Sivarasa and underscores the impact of international intervention.
