Disappeared Dozens Tortured by Fascist Junta Apparatuses in Sharqeya Province
An Egyptian who had been subjected to enforced disappearance by junta forces was found Tuesday in Sharqeya Province. He affirmed that dozens of disappeared citizens from Abu Kabir, Sharqeya, like himself, suffered grotesque and systematic torture in order to confess to crimes they have absolutely no connection with.
He further affirmed that he had met a number of the forcibly disappeared in Abu Kabir inside the National Security HQ: "They are all badly battered. Some of them may die of their very serious wounds, unless they get urgent and essential medical treatment.
Families of the disappeared in Abu Kabir lodged several formal complaints and sent telegrams to coup regime officials and to the public prosecutor, holding the interior minister responsible for the safety of their loved ones.
