Updates on the Mahalla detainees

Posted on 13/05/200806/02/2021 By 3arabawy

I received the following message from a Socialist activist in Cairo:

.العمال الثلاثة بدأوا إضرابا عن الطعام منذ الاحد الماضى حالة كريم تدهورت أمس الأثنين ..احتجاجا على الافراج عن جميع المعتقلين السياسيين سواهم

The three labor activists (Kamal el-Fayoumi, Kareem el-Beheiri and Tarek Amin) started a hunger strike Sunday, to demand their release.

Kareem’s health condition has deteriorated on Monday. I still don’t have more details. General Habib el-Adly, Mubarak’s Torturer-In-Chief has ordered the release of all political detainees in Bourg el-Arab Prison, except for our three comrades.

State-owned ISP blocks Kefaya website

From AFP:

A government-owned internet service provider has blocked the website of a leading opposition movement, a rights group said Monday, in the latest crackdown on the country’s cyber dissidents.
“The website for the Egyptian Movement for Change — Kefaya has been blocked in Egypt [for] users who have access to the internet through TE-Data … since May 4,” the Arab Network for Human Rights Information (HRinfo) said in a statement.
TE-Data, a branch of Telecom Egypt and the largest internet service provider (ISP) in Egypt, is controlled by the Egyptian government.
The censorship came as Egypt seeks to promote its information and communication technology industry by hosting the International Telecommunication Union conference, which President Hosni Mubarak opened on Monday.
“The website is performing normally with other ISPs, but the technical supervisor of the website informed us that the TE-Data Co. blocked Kefaya website through the IP address,” Kefaya website editor Samir Gad told HRinfo.
