A group of Copts living abroad have filed a lawsuit against Shaykh Yūsuf al-Badrī in Great Britain for soliciting the murder of Copts. Dr. Ibrāhīm Habīb, the President of United Copts of Great Britain, explained that freedom of religious belief is a basic human right and that article number 46 in the Egyptian constitution supports it. He said that the lawsuit is a humanitarian act and that apostasy should not be punishable by death.
