Enforced disappearance is a crime which requires punishment, especially what came in the International Convention for protecting every person from the enforced disappearance which stated in its first subject that “Invocation is forbidden under any circumstances , whether it was related to a case of war, threatening of a war outbreak, absence of inner and political settlement or any case that justifies the enforced disappearance.”
It is noteworthy that the security forces had arrested the student arbitrarily against the law without permission or a court order reasoned on Monday, 23.11.2015, According to his family he was accompanied by his friends who also are forced disappeared by the security forces of the Fifth Avenue District, he was taking along with them to an unknown location to any of their relatives and their lawyers, and did not know their place of detention,and has not been brought before a prosecutor until the moment, it is worth mentioning that this is not the first time for the student’s to be arrested, but had previously been arrested in front of Cairo University during the storming of the security forces of the University on Monday, 14/04/2014, then was released on Saturday, 02.07.2015 after the arrest lasted for 10 months.
We Freedom Seekers Monitor, in our turn condemn the the student’s detention for this long period, which is considered as a violation of all the international charts and the student’s preserved rights. We put the responsibility of the student’s safety and security in the hands of the Egyptian authorities. We also call for revealing the student’s place fast.
