Egyptian poet Galal El Beheiry tried to end his life in prison
Thankfully he was saved

The question remains: what is the purpose of keeping him indefinitely in prison if not to push him to suicide???
Galal is in prison since March 2018, over a song!

Activist Ahmed Douma was granted presidential pardon on Saturday morning after 10 years in prison, along with others who were previously handed final sentences, according to Presidential Pardons Committee member Tarek al-Khouly.

Douma was first arrested in 2013 before being sentenced to 15 years in prison and fined LE6 million in the 2019 Cabinet clashes case.

The State Security Prosecution issued another release order yesterday, Friday, for 30 individuals who have been held in remand detention since 2022, according to human rights lawyer Khaled Ali.

Lebanon is filled to the brim with the logos, brands and markers of humanitarian organizations, bringing money, projects, and personnel into the country.

But are these interventions always useful?
