The Boulaq al-Dakrour Police Station agents involved in the sexual abuse of driver Emad Kabeer have been officially referred by the prosecutor to court, reports Al-Masry Al-Youm today. The South Cairo Prosecutor decided yesterday that Police Captain Islam Nabih Abdel Salam Awad, 29, and Police Corporal Reda Fathi el-Sayyed Abu Fatma, 28, would face charges of torture in court on 9 January. No decision yet has been announced in the case of Lieutenant Mustafa Shehata of El-Haram Police Station (seen in action below), but Al-Masry Al-Youm said his prosecution was “imminent.” Photographer Ahmad el-Masry also managed to photograph the torturer Islam Nabih while leaving the Prosecutor’s office yesterday… Meanwhile, a source inside the State TV & Radio building told Al-Masry Al-Youm “security procedures are being taken” inside the building to determine the identity of the woman believed to be the victim in the third video clip under investigation. Note there are other videos the prosecution is not looking into, including those from Imbaba Police Station, like this one… and this one… and this one from the El-Montaza Police Station… and this one in Giza… and this one in Cairo downtown… And this one of Mubarak Police Academy Cadets in training… and this one from Kefaya’s anti-corruption protest… You add to that the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of cases of police brutality and abuse under Mubarak’s regime against political detainees and ordinary citizens… Related Topics:
