Ahmed Hassan-Cairo
Egyptian pharmacist Ahmed Mohie, who protested solely against President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi in Tahrir Square months ago, was released on Thursday.
The Egyptian Center for Economic and Social Rights - through his Facebook page on the social networking site Facebook - that the pharmacist Ahmed Mohie was released, and that he is in his home now after nearly six months on remand.
On July 21, the Cairo Criminal Court decided to release Mohie as part of a decision involving others, but the public prosecutor challenged him.
PCHR did not clarify whether the decision would be followed by precautionary measures against the young man.
Mohy's family had filed a complaint with the public prosecutor about his disappearance, after he raised a sign calling for Sisi to leave, following the horrific train accident in Cairo.
In late February, a horrific train accident in Cairo's main station killed 22 people and injured others.
Ahmed Mohy broadcast a video in which he said that he would go to the demonstration alone in Tahrir Square, calling on the Egyptians to break the barrier of fear and demonstration, and then followed him with another video inside Tahrir Square, before he was arrested. His fate is unknown.
