Afghanistan Releases Man Jailed For Converting To Christianity

AP reports that in Afghanistan earlier this week, Sayed Mussa, who had been held in jail for nine months on charges of converting to Christianity, was released. After a campaign on his behalf by Christian activists and international diplomats, prosecutors determined that they did not have enough evidence to charge Mussa. U.S. officials say that Mussa is now safely out of Afghanistan.
