Hyderabad (Pakistan), April 29 (Reuters): A Pakistani couple were released today after serving five years in jail for adultery, their only crime having been to fall in love and get married.

Sodi, 23, and her husband, Abdul Hakeem Kashkeli, 26, appeared in court in the southern city of Hyderabad where the judge ordered their release. “I am overjoyed. We have got justice at last,” Sodi, 23, said.
