Around the world, people who leave the faith of Islam face state persecution, imprisonment, torture, and even execution, as well as violence, death threats, and ostracisation from their own communities.
Many former Muslims or apostates risk so-called honour killing, forced marriage, kidnap, and communal violence at the hands of their families for “bringing shame” on their community. In Western countries, former Muslims are often thrown out of the family and face isolation and exclusion.
VICE News has gained access to an underground network in London who help rescue ex-Muslims. We follow the network as it helps a young atheist escape Saudi Arabia and Turkey, and provides support and shelter for young British people on the run from their families and communities.
