| Description |
On 24 January 2016, the Ministry of Interior declared having executed a 32-year-old man during a police operation in Beni Suef. The victim had however been arrested at work on 10 January 2016 and was missing since. When his relatives were authorised to see his corpse, it bore evident marks of torture which made them believe that the authorities tried to cover-up the real circumstances of his death. Their claim was asserted by the authorities' refusal to share the autopsy records and that no effective investigation was launched into his death to date. |
