From the video’s description:

We also feature Kareem Amer who on the first anniversary of his imprisonment in an Egyptian jail [yes, he had been imprisoned for blogging - defaming religion and the president] had people all over the world demonstrating for his release - vive la revolucion - and in an attempt to forever stop his blogging activities and to set an example to others, allegedly beat him on the same day. This abuse from a country that purports to value democratic principles such as freedom of the press.

- Blogging all the way to jail

Many thanks to Jonas Virdalm for organizing this rally, who also adds:

There were 6 policemen there watching us and they did not bother to report us. So it was a good demonstration for a good cause.

Thank you so much for making all of this possible! We are very happy that the Stockholm were, as per usual, a great success.
