A blog has been set up in Arabic to campaign for Islamist lawyer Mamdouh Ismail, who’s been detained by State Security, pending investigation into government bullshit accusations that he’s an “Al-Qaeda operative, trying to revive the Islamic Jihad, and…. defaming Egypt’s image.”

Mamdouh is one of the country’s most active lawyers in defending Islamist detainees and torture suspects. I hope to see him released soon…
