Piggipedia: SS General Hisham Abu Gheida is out

From SS Officers

SS General Hisham Abu Gheida, the man who ordered my detention and torture in October 2000, has been forced to retire during the interior ministry’s reshuffle last month. So he’s to receive his pension and is not facing any charges after a long life of torture, spying, corruption and loyal service to Mubarak’s regime.

SS leaders remain in service

State Security Police General Tarek Mahmoud el-Rakaybi, whom I blogged about previously, has not gone on trial. In fact, according to police sources, he remains the head of the General Police Directorate of Private Guards.

Moreover, SS General Muhammad Abul Wafa whose picture seen above was among those I found on the SS Nasr City DVDs, has been moved from the dissolved agency, according to the police sources, to become el-Rakaybi’s deputy in the General Police Directorate of Private Guards.

The same police sources also confirmed what was reported previously about SS General Hisham Abdel Fattah Abu Gheida, the last director of State Security Police, becoming the Interior Minister’s Assistant for Guards and Security Division. His son, Tarek, also a police officer, has been assigned a “very well paying job” in the police division in charge of the security of the Arab League, and was given a private car by the interior ministry–something unprecedented for officers in that division, added the sources.

The police musical chairs game continues.

SS ‘leaders’ assigned new posts

Posted on 01/04/201122/02/2021 By 3arabawy

Sixty six brigadier generals, described by Al-Masry Al-Youm as “leading members” of the dissolved State Security Police, have been assigned new posts in the Interior Ministry’s security directorates and agencies.

Al-Masry Al-Youm neither specified which agencies and directorates those brigadiers were transferred to nor did it release the names of the officers in the report, which also said that 23 SS generals had their service terminated.

Earlier Shrouk had quoted a “senior security source” saying a “big number of State Security Police officers” will be part of the newly formed National Security Agency.

From SS Officers

Already among the infamous SS names we know are part of the new interior ministry leadership is General Mortada Ibrahim, who should be thrown in jail for leading the division in charge of surveillance, phone bugging and wiretapping, but instead he’s been rewarded the post of the Interior Minister’s Assistant for Research and Planning.

And moreover, it seems General Hisham Abdel Fattah Abu Gheida, will not face trial for his involvement in torture and corruption. The general has been awarded a new post as the Interior Minister’s Assistant for Guards and Security Division.

And the musical chairs game continues.
