Behind bars with her babies – death row mother, her toddler and the baby she gave birth to while IN SHACKLES in barbaric Sudanese jail. Now she faces 100 lashes before being hanged for marrying a U.S. Christian

This is the first picture of the mother-of-two who has been sentenced to death in Sudan for being a Christian – from inside the prison where she is being held.

In an exclusive photo, Meriam Ibrahim puts on a brave face as she holds her newborn baby girl Maya who was born in the jail where she has been locked up for eight months.

But behind the smile there is a different story – Meriam's eyes have dark rings under them, her arms are alarmingly thin and her face looks gaunt.

Gone is the radiant glow from the day she married husband Daniel Wani, a U.S. citizen, and in its place is a woman struggling with the awful fate awaiting her.
