Lawyer Ahmad Ezzat confirms Muhammad Saleh Mariee was tortured by State Security pigs using electric shocks, and more worryingly he says Muhammad has been banned from seeing his lawyers in Bourg el-Arab Prison.

‘Struggle without hesitation,’ says Kareem from prison
“Struggle without hesitation,” says labor blogger Kareem el-Beheiri from his cell in Bourg el-Arab Prison.
According to a message I received few mins ago from a Socialist source, the Mahalla 3 are still on hunger strike, and State Security police agents are engaged in negotiations with them to suspend their strike.
More worryingly, it turned out, contrary to the information which trickled previously out of prison, that none of the hunger strikers have been transferred to hospital. They are still locked up in Cell No. 5, Section 22 of Bourg el-Arab Prison.
Down with Mubarak, the US-backed butcher of Mahalla!
Mahalla hunger strikers taken to hospital
I’ve just received news from a Socialist source in Cairo saying detained Ghazl el-Mahalla hunger strikers Kamal el-Foyumi and Tarek Amin were also transferred to the Bourg el-Arab prison hospital after their health deteriorated.
I still don’t have more details about when exactly were they transferred, but their health (and Kareem‘s who was transferred earlier) is in a critical condition.
