Prison News
Granting an exceptional visit for prison inmates from Wednesday 8/1/2025 until Thursday 23/1/2025 on the occasion of Christmas celebrations.
Transfer of activist Mohamed Adel from his prison in Gamassa Maximum Security Prison to the 10th Rehabilitation Prison-IV after his announcement of hunger strike and preventing his wife from visiting him before his deportation.
Legal Comment
In a regrettable scene that reflects the brutality of the security services with political prisoners, the administration of the Gamassa Maximum Security Prison refused to allow the imprisoned activist Mohamed Adel, to sit for his postgraduate exams, depriving him of entering the exams.
The prison administration transferred the activist to 10thRehabilitation Prison-IV while he continued his hunger strike. This is an escalation that confirms the violation of his right to education, which is guaranteed by the constitution and the law.
The continuation of rotating cases in Sharqia, reflects a disturbing pattern of violating legal and constitutional guarantees, as well as a serious violation of the principle of a fair trial. This approach threatens confidence in the justice system,
while it should enhance commitment to the law and respect for human rights, by reviewing these practices and subjecting them to strict controls that prevent them from being used as a means of arbitrarily restricting freedoms.
