Asia Bibi - death sentence review urged

She is the Christian woman and mother of five who has been sentenced to death in Pakistan for blasphemy. She is accused of making derogatory comments about the Prophet Mohammad, something she strongly denies. Pakistan's High Court last month rejected her appeal leaving the Supreme Court as her final option to overturn the death sentence. Dil Neiyyar reports.
