Sudan: Arrested for Missionary Work

Sudan: Arrested for Missionary Work

Petr Jasek is a Czech Christian who has been working for the past 16 years with The Voice of the Martyrs USA as the Africa Regional Director. While documenting persecution in Sudan during 2015, he was arrested and subsequently sentenced to life in prison for treason and espionage. The next 445 days of his imprisonment were grueling. Petr was moved to five different prisons, each one more dangerous than the last. In February 2017, he was released following a pardon issued by the Sudanese president. VOM Canada's Greg Musselman interviewed Petr at the television studios of 100 Huntley Street.
