Tag: 8 April 2011

A message I received:

My name is Sara Hussein Abdel Ghany, my brother, Asser Hussein Abdel Ghany, 22 years old, was arrested on the 9th of April, 2011, by the military police. Asser was among peaceful demonstrators who participated in a sit-in Tahrir Square calling the army to answer the demands of the Revolution of the 25th of January. The peaceful protesters, however, were brutally attacked by the police even though they kept shouting “selmya”-non-violent demonstration. Asser and another 41 protesters were arrested and brought to the military prosecution in the 10th District -الحى العاشر- Nasr City, charged with violating curfew. All the 42 peaceful demonstrators will be facing a military trail on the 11th of April, 2011.

Solidarity needed with Asser and all the detainees.
