Shawkan and Mahmoud Mohamed , two Egyptian young men who have been detained for more than a year unjustly and unfairly. Only their families and friends are still fighting and reminding the world with their case without giving up hope.
Mahmoud Abu Zaid aka Shawkan has been in detention since August 2013. He has been in detention for more than 640 days now. He is currently detained pending a trial in protesting and inciting violence-related charges when he was arrested while doing his job as a photojournalist.
Here was Shawkan standing in front of Judge Nagy Shehata “oh yes” on 14 May 2015 defending himself and saying that he was a photojournalist.
Unfortunately, Shehata renewed his detention for another 45 days !! Shawkan has been detained for more than 640 days for God Sake so far for just doing his job.
The freelance journalist wrote a letter from Torah prison saying that it may be his last letter as the security authorities may take from him the pen and papers he got in his cell. Shawkan wrote that eloquent letter before the trial casting doubt that he would be released and slamming that “State sovereignty” which imprisons reporters and journalists in Egypt.
Mahmoud Mohamed is a 19 years old high school student who has been detained since 25 January 2014. He was arrested because he wearing a t-shirt against torture and 25th January Scarf. For more than than a year now he has been detained pending investigations. His family released that statement in English and Arabic.
Just remember Shawkan and Mohamed. Just make noise to remind the world that they should be outside jail.There is no proper media coverage
Also please remember April 6 Co-founders Ahmed Maher and Mohamed Adel as well Alaa and Sanaa Abdel Fattah, Ahmed Douma , Abdullah El-Fakarany and Mohamed Soltan. It is just depressing when you think about that long list.

You are wrong Z. These two individuals were not arested for 'just doing their job'. They did not have a real job to start with. They took the option of a 'job' to support the nations terrorist enemies. Now they weep. It's too late . They should have thought about it earleir. They believed their friends in the mb that islamism terror would win. They certainly wished it would win. They were encouraged hearing the mb declaring as their first demand for a settlement the public killing of our President.

Oh dear. That's sadly plausible. But how do you know? Where did you get that information?
