An illiterate evangelist in Pakistan who was arrested in December over accusations of blasphemy was cleared of all allegations and released in March.

Babu Shahbaz Masih was arrested after pages of the Qur’an with his name written on them were found in the street.

But police have advised Babu and his family not to return home, as local Muslims are still pressing for him to be charged.
