The April 6 Youth Movement stated on Sunday that one of their members, Mohamed Attia, disappeared during a visit to family members in the northeastern Cairo neighborhood of Nasr City.
According to a statement by the group, Attia was last seen on Thursday, and could not be found in any hospital or police station.
Group member Sayed al-Banna stated that if Attia was arrested then it would qualify as a kidnap, since he hadn’t been transferred to prosecution. According to the privately owned Al-Masry Al-Youm, the April 6 Youth Movement’s legal committee has filed a complaint to the General Prosecutor blaming the state’s security apparatus in case Attia’s is endangered.
April 6 Youth Movement General Coordinator Amr Aly told Mada Masr that Attia was arrested in a café in Nasr City, detained at a police station and will be sent to State Security prosecution the next day. “But when lawyers headed to the police station, officers denied having arrested him in the first place,” Aly explained.
“Our biggest fear is that when Attia surfaces again his name will be on the papers of some case that he has nothing to do with,” explains the group’s spokesperson. He added that Attia is bearded and, in the light of the current political situation, he could potentially be the victim of a “fake” case.
In a similar situation, the movement blamed the murder of member Khaled al-Rashidy on police forces during the alleged security raid that took place on Wednesday.
In a Facebook statement on Thursday morning, the April 6 Youth Movement said that its member Khaled al-Rashidy was shot in the head and killed during a security raid in Nahya, Giza the night before. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health denied receiving reports of any deaths, while the Ministry of Interior described the incident as “street clashes” that resulted in the death of two Muslim Brotherhood members.
