UPDATE: Another blogger combiled some of the previously leaked police brutality videos and photos into a music clip here... and here...

UPDATE: It's interesting (and of course troubling) to see how society has also come to perceive the Egyptian police and the concept of "law enforcement." Here's a video on YouTube of Egyptian kids playing Mabaheth (Cops) in their school classroom...

I don't know which jungle you came from, but this is systematic against all citizens. Even when "criminals" or "terrorists" get arrested, they have rights ya ostaz.
Let's hope you don't get picked up one day by mistake (or for something you did), and then we'll see if you enjoy the treatment.

YES including this one.
he probably deserves what he got.
you dont know the full story.

and the "WRONG" system you are critisising is the only thing thats keeping the murderers and the rapists away from ur door.

and as for the "RIGHT" they have for a fair trial, bla bla bla
these people dont care, they should be controlled with fear, they dont give a sh*t about how things turn out all they care about is pain.
so they get pain as a punishment!!!
