Surge In Egypt Forces ‘Slave Sex’

Egyptian security forces are using sexual violence against detainees on a massive scale, according to the International Federation for Human Rights.

A report by the organisation suggests men, women and children are being abused “to eliminate public protest”.

Many are subjected to virginity tests, rape and gang rape after arrest.

Egypt’s Interior Ministry said it would not comment until it had studied the report.

The study notes a surge in sexual violence after the Egyptian military takeover in July 2013.

The perpetrators are rarely held to account and the impunity points to a “cynical political strategy aimed at silencing all opposition”.

Police, intelligence officers and members of the military are guilty of targeting male and female detainees, according to the report.

    I wouldnt be surprised if zambia descends into such a state looking at how human rights are being violated by the PF. Already people now have to apply to go to a market meanwhile the pf themselves can freely assemble large crowds in markets. PF be very careful because the international community is watching and you cannot fool people all the time. 2016 bane vote upnd

      At the rate you are going dude, I doubt it very much you will succeed in persuading people to vote for UPND. You must first learn not to see PF and UPND in every thread posted on this site.
