The NYC-based rights watchdog has issued a statement denouncing the one-year-prison sentence handed down by a military court to Member of Parliament Talaat Sadat.
The nephew of Egypt’s late president Anwar el-Sadat had his immunity lifted, and was prosecuted by the military, for “defaming Egypt’s army.”
Can you tell me where is Talaat being held?
I was there in Cairo and left shortly after his detention.
I was toured where his relative Anwar was shot
just days, even hours, before Talaat was suddenly
picked up. I admire the bravery of the judges of Egypt.
I may be returning to Egypt soon and would like
to visit Talaat in prison. Is this possible?
Thank you,
LPW
I don’t think it is possible for you to get access to him in prison.
