Breaking Meriam Ibrahim Exclusive Interview explains her Papers are 100% - Baby suffered from birth in Prison


Meriam Yehya Ibrahim, age 27, gave an Exclusive Interview by phone to CNN saying she wants to leave Sudan with her family. Meriam explained that Doctors believe her baby might be physically disabled due to the implications of giving birth with her legs chained. "I gave birth chained. Not cuffs but chains on my legs,"  The Sudanese government charged her with false documents and placed the whole family in prison. Now they are on bail in an undisclosed safe house. This Christian woman faced the death penalty because she refused to renounce her faith. The courts granted her freedom but at the airport they were again taken by police. Ibrahim explained, "I was only thinking about my children and how I was going to give birth. I was mostly scared of giving birth in prison."  "I couldn't open my legs so the women had to lift me off the table. I wasn't attached to the table," she said. "I don't know in the future whether she'll need support to walk or not," said Ibrahim. Her husband, American Daniel Wani, were detained two days at the airport in Khartoum. They were attempting to fly with the baby and young son to the United States. Ibrahim explained that airport police should not have charged them: My paperwork was '100% correct'. Sudan's Security Services said her papers were false. Meriam explained, "How can my paperwork be wrong? My paperwork came from the embassy. It's 100% correct and it was approved by the South Sudan ambassador and the American ambassador," she said. "The South Sudanese embassy took responsibility and released the papers. It's in my right to use the papers and have a South Sudanese passport because my husband is a South Sudanese citizen. He has an American passport and South Sudanese passport." Ibrahim has also been given a U.S. visa. "We were scared and wondering what was wrong. They locked us in that room for four to five hours and the whole time we were trying to figure out what the problem was," she said.  She hopes to leave Sudan with her family. "That's exactly what I want. Not anything more," she said. Please PRAY...
