Busy Day For Cracking Down Activism in Egypt

10/10/10 was very special indeed across Egypt as activists from different political powers ,were harassed , attacked and detained. I do not know from where I should start , well may be by the most recent :
In Alexandria :
  • The security arrested earlier today 26 activists and attacked other activists in Alexandria while protesting peacefully outside Alexandria courthouse in solidarity with activist Hassan Mustafa.
  • The security arrested activists from 6th April Youth, ElBaradei campaign , El-Ghad party , the revolutionary socialists and the people movement for democratic change.
  • Here are photos from ElBaradei’s campaign.
In Sharkia :
  • It started when the university guards at Al Azhar university Zagazig branch insisted to inspect two female students studying at the faculty of the Islamic studies , things turned from bad to worse when the guards wanted to inspect the two girls then they pulled the veils from their heads ,when the girls resisted the guards attacked them physically.
  • One of the girls is currently suffering a severe internal bleeding “according to some sources that bleeding is in her brain” while the other one has got a broken leg !!
  • It seems that the girls are members in the Muslim Brotherhood or to be accurate the Muslim sisterhood and their friends protested immediately at the Islamic studies faculty, of course the security attacked them with no segregation in sexes amazingly.
  • The MB students tried to protect the girls, the things which led to more clashes and more arrests ; 12 MB students are still detained at Zagazig second Police station.

On last October 3rd similar thing took place at the university of Al Fayoum where an officer harassed a student verbally and physically at the university gate.
I do not care how started the attack but I know that there is a young lady who may die because of some sick officer called Amr Imam whom I want to share his picture with the whole world.
His name is Amr Imam 

Cairo:
  • A 6 April activist was detained while gathering signatures for ElBaradei campaign in Imbaba.
  • The Security cracked down a surprise demonstration organized by 6th April youth Downtown Cairo arresting a number from activists.
  • Here it was the picture of the activists after being arrested and deported to God knows where. 
  • Here is a video clip for the protest from Al Shorouk newspaper
6 April Youth protest prices escalation
And so my friends this was 10/10/10 in Egypt 21st century edition !!
