Egypt releases Palestinian activist Ramy Shaath; set to deport him
|
 [AlAhram] Egypt has released Paleostinian-Egyptian activist Ramy Shaath, after he spent two-and-a-half years in prison, and will deport him within hours, member of Egypt's Human Rights Council Mohammed Anwar El-Sadat said on Monday Night.
Shaath, the son of former Paleostinian foreign minister Nabil Shaath, were tossed into the calaboose since 2019 over charges of assisting a terrorist group in the case known as the "Hope Cell."
Shaath, along with 12 other defendants in the case, also faced charges of disseminating false news about the political and economic conditions in the country in order to destabilise public peace and undermine trust in state institutions.
Shaath is a co-founder of Egypt's pro-Paleostinian Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement.
In November, the state security misdemeanour court sentenced lawyer and former MP Ziad El-Eleimy, another defendant in the case, to five years in prison.
El-Eleimy served as an MP representing the Egyptian Social Democratic Party in the 2012 parliament.
The court also sentenced journalists Hossam Mones and Hisham Fouad to four years in prison in the same case.
Activists Mohammed Bahnasy and Hossam Nasser received three years in the same case, and labour activist Fatma Abul-Maaty received a three-year sentence in absentia.
The ruling is final and cannot be appealed.
In July of this year, the Court of Cassation upheld a ruling placing the 13 defendants in the case on the country's terrorism list for five years.
