Saudi Arabia overturns death sentence of Hindu man accused of blasphemy

Saudi Arabia's Supreme Court has overturned death sentence of 24-year-old Sri Lankan Hindu worker Anojan Sivarasa over a blasphemous comment about Islam & Prophet Muhammad. He wrote the now-deleted comment after derogatory remarks targeting Lord Shiva circulated online. Anojan, who travelled from Sri Lanka to Saudi Arabia for work, had apologised but his remarks were reported to Saudi authorities.
