GENEVA (15 July 2021) – A UN expert today expressed dismay at the continued widespread arrest and extended pre-trial detention of human rights defenders in Egypt, saying activists have been detained without warrants, held incommunicado and then accused of multiple spurious offences. “Exercising one's right to freedom of expression, association or peaceful assembly is not a crime. Everyone has the right to promote and protect human rights. There is no justification for the actions being taken against human rights defenders by the Egypt authorities,” said Mary Lawlor, UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders. This is the second time this year that Lawlor has addressed the targeting of human rights defenders in Egypt.

Two years ago, on June 11, 2019, Ibrahim Ezz El-Din was arbitrarily arrested in Cairo, after finishing workand having left the office of the Egyptian Commission for Rights and Freedoms (ECRF). For 167 days, Ibrahim Ezz El-Din’s whereabouts remained unknown for his family and colleagues, as the authorities consistently denied his detention. He at last reappeared at Supreme State Security Prosecution(SSSP)on November 26, 2019, where he was informed he was being investigated on accusations of “contributing to the achievement of the objectives of a terrorist group” and “publication of false information undermining national security” under Case 488 of 2019.
