Trudeau declines to say if Aasia Bibi in Canada due to 'security issues'

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau declined Wednesday to confirm whether Asia Bibi, the Christian woman at the center of a decade-long blasphemy row in Pakistan, has arrived in Canada.
"There are sensitive privacy issues and security issues on this and so I can't comment," Trudeau told reporters outside parliament, after Bibi's lawyer Saif ul Mulook and multiple security sources in Pakistan told AFP that Bibi had gone to Canada.
