Torture In Egypt 2003-2006 English : El Nadim Center for the Management and Rehabilitation of victims of Violence and Torture : Free Download & Streaming : Internet Archive

This booklet is the third report produced by El Nadim Center for the Management and Rehabilitation of victims of Violence and torture. It includes all center activities between 2003 and 2006. Our ambition has always been to produce an annual report. However, we were not successful in doing so in view of the rapid development of events, the pressure of daily work and the difficulty for a staff member to work full time or the collection of the annual material, its classification, and editing to be produced as a booklet. He tried to fill this gap through the production of smaller booklets that address one or the other aspect of our work. We produced a book on women in detention centers, another on the role of physicians in preventing torture and documenting its effects, a third one documenting the massacre committed against Sudanese refugees by the Egyptian police in December 2005, a another on torture in Sudan and a fifth

booklet carrying the testimonies of the citizens of Arish, which Egyptian security authorities turned into a big detention center. All of those publications carry the testimonies of the Nadim staff and its activities whether inside or outside the center, reaching out to victims of police violence, whether

individual or collective.

The present report includes all center activities related to torture and collective state violence

during the years 2003-2006. Although those years have witnessed the beginning of a political stir

demanding democracy and justice, they have also, or may be because of that, witnessed an

escalation of two forms of oppressive policies and police violations, some of which we document in

this report.
