Free Kareem! - Kareem is being beaten at the State Security Intelligence headquarters

The Arabic Network for Human Rights Information reports that Kareem is being beaten at the State Security Intelligence (SSI) headquarters in Alexandria where he was held illegally for the past five days. The press release notes that Kareem has completed his full sentence and should therefore be released. A translation of the report’s highlights are below:

On the 6th of November Kareem Amer was released from the Borj Al Arab prison, where he was held for years, and his official release was meant to be processed, however he was detained by the State Security Intelligence in Alexandria where he faced beatings by a junior officer as well as an order for his continued detainment.

Gamal Eid, the director of the Arab Network for Human Rights Information, said that these practices against an unarmed prisoner is creating a climate of hatred against the police forces in general and the State Security Intelligence officials in particular. Kareem already spent years of punishment and his release is now a legal obligation, therefore why is he being beaten and held illegally?

The network stresses that holding a prisoner under these conditions despite having completed the sentence given four years ago is an injustice that people will not be willing to forget. Egypt’s ministry of interior will have to one day answer for these crimes. The ministry in question, with all its soldiers and officers, are not more powerful than a person’s right.

I am shocked! The authorities in Egypt, including President Mubarak should one day be brougt to justice.

Horrible!

Hoping he'd be released very soon and flee anywhere else!

Illegally held for the last five days? He's been illegally held for the last 4 years! Egyptian law is nothing if it does not respect freedom of speech. 3000 years ago one god was a heresy in Egypt, and now one god is the rule no god is the heresy. It's not a crime to say “you're wrong, no such thing as gravity” but a crime to say “you're wrong, no such thing as god” ?? One has hundreds of scientific books supporting it and the other absolutely zilch. It's ridiculous .
