i. make up your mind. january 20th 11 hundreds of thousands of men and women in egypt protest against the regime of president hosni mubarak who has been in power for 3 decades there demanding his resignation more freedom and social justice. the mass protests are a success mubarak is forced to step down. the egyptian military assumes power yet the protests go on the police and military retaliate with ever greater

force many women become the targets of sexual harassment and violence perpetrated by the military the police and religious zealots. the situation does not change just the party of the islamic muslim brotherhood wins the parliamentary elections in january 2012th and their candidate mohamed morsi becomes the new president in june 2012 egyptians soon take to the streets again to demonstrate against morsi is regime once more there are many women in the front line i joined a cultist against morsi and that was a big gatherings a problem as i ended most of all the protests many women assaulted. i was passed and groped by men who met. sexual harassment and sexual violence has been. the. sense of virginity

virginity tests i mean. rape and assault they were taking place all the time but now that anything no one was just us protecting ourselves. so we decided as a group of friends to form some sort of an intervention team it started off as operation anti-sexual harassment and then later on when we realized that we should not sugarcoat the level of the crime we are slashing assault. was in the 21st of january 2013.

we've documented 19 cases of sexual assault and rape at least one of them was raped with a with a knife. it was extremely brutally unplugged she. was. peeping this is not a brawl the red circle indicates the position of the young woman she's being sexually assaulted in this home and 3 or 4 pairs of hands are in her trousers and 3 or 4 others inside her blouse 10 people are pulling her from every direction some people are helping her. she was a man takes office trousers to cover her. another

does the same with his jacket. this young woman can't breathe in all the pulling and pushing she passes out. as a thank god she's not wearing a scarf like the girl they tried to strangle with the one she was wearing or the girl who was penetrated with a knife or the woman who was raped in front of her children and the. eman don't these women will never be told they are heroes. said we will not be silenced this is our revolution and we will fight this battle to the last breath. moore says government that nothing. no one found on forces investigating the sexual violence that took place during their who. is said whoever was an authority watched this happen and they were blaming each other. neither of them

have done anything to protect women and women's bodies became just a battlefield a political battle feeding. the the the i was the was. a year ago morsi won 51 percent of the but now it's clay $22000000.00 signatures of being gathered against. me believes they shout to writing him as

autocratic and incompetent as poverty unemployment inflation and debt all continue to worsen the president's supporters insist he must stay in power by brotherhood spokesman warns the current supporters will not turn the other cheek and the 2 camps seem headed inexorably to finding clash. and if seen it and we wanted the people to topple the brotherhood we could paddle selves for that. we had to tend to in time to square and to tend to the presidential palace we were prepared to stay a month or 2. they're going to have thought that we were preempted when c.c. issued a 48 hour ultimatum and get the money on by and sat millions of people once again taking to the streets to cheers crowds in south korea square the military has given the president a major ultimatum egypt's army announces it will intervene within 48 hours the

clock is ticking and nobody on this he didn't mean the wasting more time will only lead to more division and conflict in the m.k. sam you are. in because it is not possible the people empowered me the people chose me through a free and fair election just the people approved a constitution that assigned me a role in the country expects me to act in accordance with this legitimacy and. but actually the constitution or the presidency like you just heard beleaguered of the egyptian military general el-sisi make it official of the egyptian president mohamed morsi is. the fall and

i was there the moment morsi was removed from power. and i had been challenging and celebrating with my colleagues it suddenly hit me this stiff was brought about by the military. because. i had the most of the most english as happy as i was that most it was out that had been algo i was afraid because it was achieved by the military. i did it with the military trying to seize power again. would we see more military violations on the streets and in the square killings torture dragging and abuse of women i was very concerned about what would come to think about it could.

be. authorities are increasingly using the word terrorism when describing supporters of the ousted president mohamed morsi the muslim brotherhood. i. i have such specific i'm asking you c.c. who appointed you who appointed your huge dog morsi appointed we will burn you i was i was pleased to hear what you just saw fighting to the ground reportedly pushed off a bridge by support of the forces by the muslim brotherhood they are watching the

forces of the interim government opening fire and whispering. the muslim brotherhood say stores of protesters are dancing they claim police were shooting to kill and we're going to the morgue we've witnessed so many noise that they forced parents to sign report saying their child died of suicide while fighting when they were actually shot in the chest breaking. through the heart of. the unit comes closer than i often work late at the los and to his house and it's very difficult for me to get home already established on the top.

there is a lot of pressure when you're dealing with people who have been arrested or are missing the situation in this country is very difficult at the moment no one feels safe enough and since then i mean. we are. currently believe in the right to stay because at 7 am the police had to grab a square and surrounded it from all directions. trapping everyone and sucked. thank. you.

and if they knew that i did i went to the ball the next day and i will never forget that smell of death. they matter what kind of people they were they were still people. most of them it's like a lot to some but are they out of the city and could have been cleared in a more humane way they could have blocked a toll cut the electricity supply the water supply and morgan also i know it could

have been the sewage system but to burn down the most skin a gas station him as good which headed by the zima. there were too many dead bodies for the morgue to handle. so the bodies were piled in the street. they were covered with newspaper and ice because it was so hot. he is a french journalist who wants to interview him. and nephew and the coordinator of the human rights defenders program. what do you think is the reason for this repression. any regime can use repression as

a way to control opposition they will be more arrests and there will be more violence i mean in the next phase the rate of violence and the rate of arrests will increase not decrease. are there a lot of detainees facing severe charges like terrorism. yes everyone arrested is charged with terrorism. will the government prevail. prevail. they claim the state is eliminating terrorism but terrorism will only increase because of the state's extreme violence. that's not the way to eliminate terrorism . this will only increase terrorism in egypt i predict will suffer for years to come because of the way security forces dealt with the muslim brotherhood. down my list if you.

buy it but it's true all caps ruined morse's government and now back to an interim government backed by the army and the same activists are being tried and arrested. they have transferred my case to a terrorism court. and the judiciary is now handing out severe sentences against the revolutionaries. a lot of the new i try to stay optimistic everything will be ok god willing. the lawyers will do what's necessary to prove us innocent but all right not. home are you here to defend him to know if he.

gets the hearing started and it was clear from the beginning that the judge was totally against us he insisted on locking us in the cage 1st. i'm presenting the findings of the investigation into the events of the murder and injury of protesters in december 27th. you will. note these allegations in the record. your investigation reports say that the officers and soldiers attack these people. yes you are saying these people in the cage are victims correct. are you saying the police are bastards who go around randomly arresting people. where's your proof. our request to submit the evidence is in the document before you. so this document contains all the evidence

you want to submit yes your honor we are adamant the 7th be entered in the court record. the courts decided to postpone this case. i. suppose so how will we get out of this. quite although i mean i predict that you'll be sentenced to at least 10 years. they want the majority of activists or those involved in human rights activities to be

in prison so be prepared for it and as you say you're a human rights and women's rights activist so they have their eye on you and when necessary i think the verdict will be severe it won't be lenient 5 years would be an acquittal in this case misha encompassing the model for the lead because one of them i think an acquittal would be like condemning the enemy so they're not going to acquit us of that i've started to put him myself or whatever happens the most important thing is that you guys come to visit me. we'll come visit you we don't abandon anyone all of you. will be there all the time you'll be sick of us. god is with you and will be with us don't worry. this is a really dark days.

i won't annoy that i'm scared about the trial but what lies ahead can't be worse than what i've already experienced.

the fall of the market keep these with even case someone is arrested hike them in your pockets and pass them around if someone is mistreated they'll know who to call we have lawyers this is why he thought for the past 2 weeks i've had an uneasy feeling. my brother joined the army and i'm always a protest. it's possible that i'll find my brother standing there with his weapon ready to use against me. and he could be the one who drags me away of arrests and tortures me or my friends he could fire a bullet at me my kid. that could be my brother and the holy. hand and what's going on. we have to split into groups they're arresting all the young

people we're surrounded by security forces it's a disaster waiting to happen. i think. the time. i. think. i know people united to oppose the president 3 years ago but not enough people divided. on the one side those who believe the military backed interim government has saved the

revolution. on the other those who maintain their hopes of democracy and not. someone's been shot ok so. what happened to you. look at all of. those protesting the military back to take over the full speech dispersed by the police armed to the nose full to being an authorized protest as well as the tear gas the kids are we going to be strong today we knew this was going to happen we will rise to the occasion come on we have a car and. we have to get out of here.

only god can help us now. was. was. taking to the streets to see our revolution through to the end but after 3 years the situation has gotten worse. every time we go out and protest we think it's going to get better but the only thing increasing is the number of people dying bloody deaths we are being killed off or put in jail every time we demonstrate for a new president the new one attacks and kills more of us than the last. man is that we've been in a street war for the past 2 hours and they've arrested many young protesters those

not carrying c.c.s. photo were taken away has become a symbol of freedom and those without his picture of the opposition what is freedom that we have seen. as long as there are people like you behind us mama will never give up or despair and i want you to know one thing nobody is going to be our government whoever brings bread freedom and social justice to egypt i will respect him but fear and violence will not intimidate us terrorism is not the muslim brotherhood all the street thugs the most dangerous terrorists are the ones who lie arrest and humiliate people no one has been put on trial yet for murdering the egyptian people. they charged convict and kill. lesson state.

police. leak. it's not hard to remember what i wanted to do in the revolution because what i want to ban is what i want now freedom who doesn't want freedom. that the mobs that were chanting sons of the on that freedom and social justice thank you living fighting for women's rights specifically. course i'm not as positive as i was once but it's.

come up in group who you are what uniform you're wearing what you're not wearing we're going to fight we have rights and it doesn't much of was a power and. we really made that point and the past years hey we're here to stand. and we had a baby victory. for the. good. looking man who. could name and i know so many. my colleagues and i always say that a nation without torture is a dream that will make come true we are working hard to achieve that goal when how do you.

want to have it i still have conflicts with my family. they're still not convinced that i'm right. but i'm glad i do what i deem and i do it with love i feel that i'm conveying a message and contribution to a cause i believe it. yes
