A young Christian girl who ran away from her Muslim parents in Ohio when her father allegedly threatened her life will be allowed to stay with her foster family in Florida and keep her lawyer for now, a judge ruled today.
As WND reported, Fathima Rifqa Bary, 17, an honor student and cheerleader, was raised in a Muslim family in Columbus, Ohio. She became a Christian four years ago as a result of her interactions with children at school.
But Bary, a native of Sri Lanka, hitchhiked to a bus station and ran away from home July 19 because she says her family will murder her in what is known as an "honor killing" for converting to Christianity. In Islamic tradition, an honor killing is the killing of a person believed to have brought dishonor upon his or her family. The United Nations tabulates about 5,000 such "honor killings" annually around the world, and they have been documented even in the United States.
Bary sought refuge with a church group in Florida but has been in state foster care by court order. Orlando, Fla., trial lawyer John Stemberger is Bary's attorney. Atlas Shrugs' Pamela Geller was in the courtroom for a hearing today.

Simple solution, send the family back to Sri Lanka.
She became a Christian four years ago as a result of her interactions with children at school.Then the principal should be fired... or jailed.
Isn't it against the law for any student or teacher to even mention anything regarding Christianity in any school inside the borders of the USA?
How is it that this criminal principal is still roaming around free?
Hopefully this legal nightmare can be dragged out till this brave girl is 18 and then she can give a big fat F-U to her blood relatives (I won’t call them a family).
What is the deal here? It’s easy to become an emancipated minor in most states at 17.
The family should be arrested and jailed for threatening her. Then deported to the hell-hole they came from in Sri Lanka. Oh, and by the way, STOP MUSLIM IMMIGRATION NOW.It is positively suicidal for America to be allowing Muslims to immigrate to this country. Another triumph of the evil Ted Kennedy.
Evidently Florida isn't one of them.
Or as the Austrailian Prime Minister -(the only Western Leader with cajones) - said
"IF YOU LIKE SHARIA LAW, THEN GET THE F' BACK WHERE YOU CAME FROM!"
A rational person would read this and immediately call for a complete end to immigration for all Death Cult members.
