In July, a Czech aid worker who spent over a year in a Sudan prison said that he counted his experience a ‘privilege’ because it enabled him to share his Christian faith with other prisoners.
Petr Jašek also praised the country’s ‘very courageous’ Christian minority. He said that two Sudanese Christians, who were arrested days after him, have been resettled in the US since their release in May 2017. A third has been released and remains in Sudan.
He added that, of those with whom he shared a cell during his incarceration, the ‘most cruel’ was a member of Islamic State who had attended school in London.
