20:49Now PlayingThe sentencing of Egyptian ex-Muslim and atheist Sherif Gaber to an additional five years in prison, bringing his total sentence to nine years for merely criticizing Islam, has sparked international outrage and condemnation. Gaber's "crime" was producing online content that Egyptian authorities deemed insulting to Islam and Allah, as well as "inciting atheism" - acts prohibited under Egypt's constitution and penal code despite Gaber's insistence that he never called on others to abandon their faith. In a poignant YouTube video titled "9 Years in Prison - For Criticizing Islam," the defiant activist, who has been on the run since his initial arrest in 2018, expressed dismay over the harsh sentence levied for simply expressing his views, raising grave concerns about the state of freedom of expression and human rights in Egypt. Gaber's plight has reignited fierce debates over blasphemy laws, the treatment of apostates, and the policing of religious criticism in Muslim-majority nations that pay lip service to democratic values while cracking down on dissent.
