The Christian Post reports:
A Christian mother recently lost a custody battle for her 13-year-old Christian twins to their Muslim father in Egypt, but vows that she will not give up her children even if it means having a criminal record for not complying with court order . . .
But the Appeal Court of Alexandria ignored Egyptian laws and the children’s wishes and ruled on Sept. 24 that twins Andrew and Mario should be raised by their father and his new wife.
“This decision was dangerous because it was not taken in accordance with Egyptian law but according to sharia (Islamic) law,” said Naguib Gobraiel, Gaballah’s lawyer and president of the Egyptian Union of Human Rights Organizations.
