**An Egyptian court has ruled that 12 Christians who converted to Islam and then reverted to Christianity can have their faith officially recognised. **

The decision overturns a lower court ruling which said the state need not recognise conversions from Islam because of a religious ban.
This is a case that has tested Egypt’s tolerance of conversions from Islam.
