القاتل فى لندن - مظاهرة ضد زيارة سيسي Egyptian human rights activists staged a protest "die in" in front of the gates of Downing Street at the same moment, 10am on 5 November 2015, that the British Prime Minister David Cameron was rolling out the red carpet at Number 10 for Egypt's military dictator Abdel Fattah el-Sisi. In his enthusiasm to secure lucrative deals for British multinationals and arms exporters, Cameron seemed prepared to overlook the human rights abuses of what has become one of the most authoritarian governments in the Middle East. Sisi's regime has been responsible for the death of hundreds of protesters on the streets, hundreds of disappearances and death sentences, a clampdown on the press and media, trade unions and universities and allowing key Mubarak figures to return to politics and big business. After disbanding parliament, Sisi's regime decreed that the government could delegate business and construction projects to the military without any tender process and subsequently the Egyptian army has been awarded contracts worth billions of dollars. Meanwhile anyone who speaks out, whether Islamist or secular, is at risk of arrest or being "disappeared" and currently it is estimated that the country has approximately 40,000 political prisoners. This is what Human RIghts Watch conclude in their latest country report - "Egypt’s human rights crisis, the most serious in the country’s modern history, continued unabated throughout 2014. The government consolidated control through constriction of basic freedoms and a stifling campaign of arrests targeting political opponents. Former Defense Minister Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, who took office in June, has overseen a reversal of the human rights gains that followed the 2011 uprising. Security forces and an increasingly politicized judiciary—apparently unnerved by rising armed group attacks—invoked national security to muzzle nearly all dissent."
