13:02Now PlayingIn May, Emna Chargui posted a parody of the Quran, titled “Surah Corona,” a silly passage about the COVID-19 pandemic in the style of the Quran. A Tunisian court has sentenced the blogger to six months in prison and a $700 fine for reposting the joke on Facebook. A court spokesman said the sentence was on charges of inciting hate between religions and races. Saying she was a victim of a "repressive law" that curtailed free speech, Amnesty International said the prosecution did not allow Chargui's lawyer to accompany her to court, where she was asked about her religious beliefs and mental condition. Emna plans to appeal the decision.
We would like to thank the Atheist Republic community for raising your concerns regarding the fundraiser for atheist refugee Nacer Amari. We took your worries seriously and examined all claims thoroughly. Upon examination of new evidence that was brought to our attention, we have made the difficult decision to withdraw support from Amari's asylum case. Atheist Republic applies strict criteria in determining those to whom we provide support. We only support individuals and cases who have been thoroughly screened and endorsed by at least three other organizations also involved in assisting atheists/humanists in danger. In spite of our efforts, this case evolved in an unfortunate and regrettable direction. We would like to thank our community once again for voicing your concerns, and we deeply appreciate your feedback and continued support.
Atheist Alliance International has informed us that they will be reaching out to donors over the next week to offer them a full reimbursement of their donation. You may also email asn@atheistalliance.org with evidence of your donation for a full refund.
