A British teacher has been found guilty in Sudan of insulting religion after she allowed her primary school class to name a teddy bear Muhammad.These people sound more paranoid than Hugo Chavez.
Gillian Gibbons, 54, from Liverpool, has been sentenced to 15 days in prison after a day-long court hearing.
Mrs Gibbons had been accused on three counts of insulting religion, inciting hatred and showing contempt for religious beliefs.
She will be deported after serving her sentence.
Sudan's top clerics had called for the full measure of the law to be used against Mrs Gibbons and labelled her actions part of a Western plot against Islam.
