Asia Bibi's lawyers have filed an appeal with the Supreme Court.
Key quote:
He said Asia Bibi, 47, had been implicated in a false blasphemy case and she would prove this in the Supreme Court.
"Supreme Court is the highest forum and Asia Bibi has not given up hope of getting justice," he said.
Malook said there had been "legal defects" in the judgement of the High Court in the case.
"We filed an appeal today in the Supreme Court (Lahore registry) against the Lahore High Court's verdict in the Asia Bibi case," Asia's counsel advocate Saiful Malook said.
The online petition calling for mercy for Asia Bibi can still be found here.
For those who do not know who she is, here is the story about Asia Bibi's unjust imprisonment and death sentence for "blasphemy" against the Prophet Muhammad.
Please pray for Asia Bibi and her family. Also, please pray for those who are risking their lives to free her.
