Bullshit In Egypt
- With 0 comments
With the arrest of bloggers and politicians which is severely denting freedom of speech lately i was wondering if this crap only happens in Boleh-land and apparently not! Another country which arrest bloggers who are critical of the government is Egypt. In Egypt many bloggers have been arrested without proper justification. It seems that some governments think they are superhero’s that can wave the powerful wand and shut off those who speak against them.
In Egypt, A young Egyptian blogger Mohamed Refaat has being in jail since July.
The state security apparatus had raided Mohamed Refaat’s home early in the morning on 21st of July 2008 in his absence, and seized his PC, and many of his books, and when Mohamed Refaat approached the officer “ Hisham Tawfik” in the morning in the state security offices, he shocked by the fabricated charges of “inciting to strike on the occasion of 23rd July”, he was then referred to the state security prosecution office in the case no. 1143 for the year 2008
You dont have to be a terrorist or a rapist or a murdered to be arrested. All you need to do is speak your thoughts. Its embarrassing that in this time in age that freedom of speech is being being killed off.
There should be a strong International law in place to charge any governments of the worlds who arrest anyone who is simply exercising their views.(or this is one already?)
