Egyptian authorities have detained three female students on trumped-up charges. The women are prisoners of conscience, held solely for the peaceful exercise of their rights to freedom of expression and assembly. Abrar Al-Anany and Menatalla Moustafa, 18-year-old students, and 21-year old graduate student Yousra Elkhateeb, were arrested on 12 November 2013 at Mansoura University after clashes on the university campus between supporters and opponents of the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood. They were among at least 23 students arrested that day. The young women are being held at Mansoura’s Public Prison, where each is allowed only a weekly five-minute visit from her family.
