Language | ENG |
Author | Michaelson, Ruth |
Summary / Abstract (Note) | Since Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi took power in 2013, the list of Egyptians forcibly disappeared, unjustly detained, or held in pre-trial detention has grown. Journalist Ruth Michaelson explores Egypt’s pliant justice system and the geopolitics that enable the state to lock away alleged opposition members without ever seeing a judge. |
