The National Council for Human Rights demands regular inspections of police stations
The National Council for Human Rights praised the surprise visit of the public prosecutor to some police stations during the last two days. The public prosecutor has insisted that charges must be filled within 24 hours of arrests and visits, such as the ones made during the past two days, must remain a constant and continuous occurrence. Hāfaz Ābū S’ada, a member of the Council, and the president of the Egyptian Human Rights Council have said that members of the public prosecutor’s office will carry out surprise inspections of polices stations and prisons following a visit to the prisons by a committee from the National Council for Human Rights and that the public prosecutor has this right according to Egyptian law.
