Egyptian President El-sisi Pardons 712 Prisoners by ichommy(m): 10:50pm On Jun 06, 2018 |

A full list of those pardoned was not immediately available. Since coming to power in 2014, El-Sisi has presided over a sweeping crackdown on Islamist opponents and liberal activists that rights groups say is the worst period of political repression in Egyptian history. He has issued pardons several times a year, including on major national holidays, often releasing students and young protesters. https://www.emmy.ng/2018/06/egyptian-president-el-sisi-pardons-712.html CC: osystein, HumbledbYGrace, mukina2 Lalasticlala, Mynd44 |
