Exile or Prison: Egypt's Offer To Critics Abroad – Human Rights Watch

3/28/2023 – Amr Magdi, Senior Researcher in HRW's Middle East and North Africa Division, was a contributor to a report published earlier that month exposing how Egyptian authorities were refusing to provide identity documents to critics living abroad. In this dispatch, Magdi provides further details about how some foreign missions require citizens accessing services to provide extensive, unnecessary details, which are then sent directly to security agencies in Egypt. Magdi also mentions that since the publication of that initial report, Egyptian critics living in the UK and Qatar have reported similar abuses.
