Egypt Policeman Jailed Over Death Of Activist Shaimaa Al-sabbagh by davidpokopikin(m): 10:27pm On Jun 11, 2015
A court in Egypt has sentenced a policeman to 15 years in prison over the killing of an unarmed female activist in Cairo in January
Lt Yassin Hatem Salahedeen was found guilty of the manslaughter of Shaimaa al-Sabbagh, who was hit in the back with birdshot at a peaceful protest on the anniversary of the 2011 revolution.
Her death was caught on camera and caused a worldwide outcry.
The interior ministry initially denied police involvement in her death.
But in the face of mounting pressure, President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi referred to Sabbagh as "my own daughter" and promised that those responsible would be held accountable..see more stories and picture here http://bestnaijamade..com/2015/06/egypt-policeman-jailed-over-death-of.html
