CAIRO, November 12 (Compass Direct News) – Just days after two Christian activists from a human rights group were released from jail, Egyptian authorities took three of their colleagues into police custody over the weekend. An Egyptian prosecutor has issued 15-day detentions to two of three Christian activists with Middle East Christian Association (MECA) who were jailed on Saturday (November 10). Officials detained the members of Canada-based MECA after the organization’s Egypt president finished a 90-day detention last week. Released November 5 without charges, Adel Fawzy Faltas and MECA member Peter Ezzat had alternately been accused of insulting Islam, destroying Egypt’s reputation, owning a gun without a license and posing a threat to national security during the three-month interrogation. “It’s the same thing again,” said Nader Fawzy, MECA international president, after speaking with lawyers who met the newly jailed activists over the past two days. “They are accusing us of defaming Islam and destroying the reputation of Egypt.”
Well, their arrests certainly don't help Egypt's reputation. Or that of "Islamic tolerance."
