Interior Minister General Magdy Abdel Ghaffar met Tuesday with head of the semi-independent National Council for Human Rights (NCHR) Mohamed Faek, to discuss cooperation between the two entities in order to “highlight respect of human rights”.

Despite criticism from local and international rights groups of the status of prisoners in detention centres, the ministry dismisses all accusations.

El Nadeem Centre for Rehabilitation of Victims of Violence published its August report regarding human rights violations inside detention facilities, ranging from murder to torture, medical negligence and enforced disappearances.
