Jerusalem Post - Iran: Christian Pastor Charged with Rape, not Apostasy

By Benjamin Weinthal, Jerusalem Post

Youcef Nadarkhani who was accused of apostasy from Islam still faces death penalty amid new allegations including that he is a "Zionist." . . .

FoxNews.com also secured a copy of the original ruling and noted, “There is not a single mention of rape or extortion allegations.”

Fox News wrote, “The ruling also alleges that he also participated in Christian worship by holding home church services and baptizing himself and others, effectively breaking Islamic Law.” The American Center for Law and Justice translated the legal rulings into English. . . .

Jordan Sekulow, the executive director of the American Center for Law and Justice, told Fox, “The only question now is whether the Iranian government is actually leveling these new charges against him in court or just throwing out new accusations to try and deflect media attention.” . . .
