Egypt: Enero 2008 Archives

Ayman Numan, a fifth year student studying in the College of Dentistry at 6th of October University in Egypt, disappeared in Cairo. He has been missing since December 15th, 2006.

Numan’s father, a resident of Saudi Arabia, said that his son disappeared after he was arrested and investigated by an Egyptian police center in Cairo that same day.

His son was driving his car following Friday prayers on December 15th when he became involved in a car accident. The two drivers were detained and transferred to al-Ajoza police center. The prosecutor at al-Ajoza referred Ayman to the doctor because he was confused and in a bad psychological state. However, he was never shown to a doctor and on the next day the prosecutor fined Ayman 200 Egyptian pounds for driving a car without a driver’s or car license.
