Contempt of Religions & Religion minorities
I want thank you Mr. President
My Name is: Medhat Kelada President of the Federation of European Union & President
of Middle East organization for Human Rights in Switzerland, in addition represent the
Coptic minorities whic h is 15 Million people ( Approx. 15 % of Egypt Population ).
My word today about the Contempt of Religions whic h is c rime targeting Minorities
espec ially after we spotted its Reperc ussions during the last three years as follows:
A) Judgment the c hild Gamal Abdou Massoud ( 16 Years old ) with Rigorous
imprisonment for three years bec ause he posted a Photo on Fac ebook : It was
said to be offensive to Islam III! Ac c ordingly, sec tarian violenc e erupted targeting
Mankabad Baheeg, Al Adwe and Dar Eslam villages in Assiut Governorate,
Consequently displac ement for his family from their village in the beginning of
2012.
B) Judgment Demiana Ebeid Abd El Nour Sc hool Teac her in a small village of Luxor
Governorate with Six months Confinement and 100,000 Egyptian Pounds Fine
dated 12/06/2013 by Mohammed El Tamawy (Judge), who refused to listen to the
defense request and did not ac c ept to c all for her supportive witnesses, whom
are Sc hool Manager and Sc hool board of trustees president. These Two did not
find any physic al evidenc e against her.
It is worth saying that Artic le no. 161 from Egyptian Penalty Law where Demiana Abd
El Nour was c onvic ted, states c learly the penalty as follows:
Confinement and pay 100 to 500 Egyptian Pounds fine, where the c ourt did not respec t
the Law and went beyond Merc ilessness spec ially when Demiana Salary is 150 Egyptian
Pounds per Month, whic h means she will need 150 Years to pay the fine!!!!
C) Judgment Kirolos Shawky young man with Rigorous imprisonment for Six years
who suffers from sight weakness whic h c onsider disability in the Army Law so he
c ould not serve in the Army bec ause of his Eyes. What did he do Kirolos?Il I! He
c lic ked (LIKE) on a Fac ebook Page c ritic ize Islam, and right after he did so, there
were great attac ks on the Coptic houses and private properties followed by
displac ement for his family from the village ( Armant ), by the way Kirolos is not
the only c ase ac c used with Religion Contempt through Fac ebook HI but his c ase
