CWN Editor's Note: The Italian government has promised to help Asia Bibi and her family, after the Pakistani woman was returned to prison despite a top court decision overturning her conviction on blasphemy charges.

Italian prime minister Matteo Salvini promised to “do everything humanly possible” once Asia Bibi is freed.
