#humanrights #humanrightsactivist #egypte #YannBourdon #yann_missing ---------------- After CFJ campaign, Yann Bourdon The French citizen appears in Egypt after one year of mysterious disappearance The French citizen, Yann Bourdon, who had gone missing for nearly a year in Cairo, Egypt, reappeared on 9 August and returned to his home country, but wishes to remain silent about his ordeal. For understanding the full story visit the link: https://bit.ly/3QyyJCM Human Rights Officer at the Committee for Justice, Sarah Sakouti said that Bourdon’s appearance is the culmination of efforts by the rights group to pressure Egypt and France to reveal his whereabouts. In an interview with BFM radio on Tuesday, Sakouti said that Bourdon left Egypt on Thursday, August 11, 2022, at 10 a.m., and arrived in France at 2:30 p.m. On August 9, 2022, Bourdon went to the French embassy in Cairo, and was able to communicate with his family by phone the next day without disclosing any information about his disappearance. Sakouti explained that CFJ and human rights advocates respect Bordon's desire to remain silent and to give him time to return to his normal life. Bourdon, a student of history at the Sorbonne University in Paris, decided in the summer of 2021 to travel across Europe and take a break from his studies. He arrived in Istanbul, Turkey on July 24, 2021, and from there booked a flight to Sharm el-Sheikh in Egypt to visit the country and explore its historical sites. On the morning of July 25, 2021, his plane landed at Sharm el-Sheikh Airport in Egypt. In Sharm el-Sheikh, he visited the city, climbed Mount Sinai and spent time with locals who lived in nearby villages. He also visited Saint Catherine. Bourdon traveled across the cities he was visiting by stopping cars and asking drivers to drop him to specific locations (hitch-hiking). Throughout his time in Egypt, Bourdon sent emails to his family every time he got access to public Wi-Fi (usually every two to six days). On July 28, 2021, Bourdon sent the last detailed email to his family, in which he said that he was going to Suez to meet an off-duty police officer who came to talk to him, and told him that he was returning from his vacations and that he could give him a ride to Cairo. The police officer then dropped him at a subway station in Cairo. Before allowing Bourdon to leave, the police officer invited Bourdon to join him for dinner with some friends. Bourdon agreed and joined them on the night of July 28, 2021. On August 4, 2021, the same day he disappeared, Bourdon replied to his sister’s last email, confirming to her that he would write to the family soon. In early September 2021, after several weeks passed without hearing from Bourdon despite several attempts to contact him, his family began to worry, especially when he missed his mother’s birthday. According to his family, he never missed the birthday of any member of his family. Also in November 2021, the same thing happened with his sister’s birthday, so the family decided to take action. On November 24, 2021, the Bourdon family sent a request to the French Foreign Ministry’s Crisis and Protection Center. Two days later, the French National Police opened an official investigation into Bourdon’s disappearance. After taking the family’s testimony, the investigation has been forwarded to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The family requested an update in January 2022, especially with the failure of the authorities in Egypt to cooperate with the investigations and their assertion that Bourdon was not on Egyptian soil. The assertion came despite the French police’s knowledge of the last financial transactions carried out by Bourdon using his credit card, which he used at an ATM machine next to the Sadat metro station in Tahrir Square in Cairo. On February 16, 2022, the Egyptian authorities contacted the Bourdon family requesting a copy of his identity card. On the 28th of the same month, an employee of the Egyptian Consulate called the family, and used a sharp tone in dealing with them, arguing that Egyptians had also disappeared in France. On March 25, 2022, the Egyptian authorities finally admitted that Bourdon was indeed inside the country after checking his flight records and his passport number. So his family decided to travel to Egypt on May 21 to follow up on the case. --------------------- For understanding the full story visit the link: https://bit.ly/3QyyJCM --------------------------------
Twitter Space Yasmine Omar CFJ: President Biden should acknowledge UN resolutions issued for detainees in Egypt and Saudi Arabia --- Geneva: 21 July 2022 Yasmine Omar, the United Nations and Regional Manager at the Committee for Justice, stressed that US President Joe Biden should acknowledge United Nations resolutions issued regarding many detainees in Egypt and Saudi Arabia, and exercise pressure for their implementation. The need to talk about detainees:  “It's time to call on President Biden to acknowledge UN resolutions issued for detainees like Alaa Abdel Fattah who enters his 103th day of hunger strike today in objection to unfair treatment, to abuses, to torture to ignoring his hunger strike," Omar said in a conversation organized by the DC-based Freedom Initiative on Twitter. She also referred to the case of human rights lawyers, such as Amr Imam, who has been in solitary detention for more than 1000 days. Omar added that the same applies to people who are affiliated with the US, either relative to US citizens or residents in the US like Salah Sultan, father of American human rights defender Mohammed Soltan and also a PhD student Waleed Salim who has been wrongfully banned from travelling for years now without legal basis. “I think this is a significant time to be raising these voices, to be speaking of these cases, and to use these legal mechanisms to influence the political decision in Egypt,” she stressed. Support may lead to more violations:  Omar argued that any friendly visit to countries that have a large record of human rights violations could encourage these countries to commit more violations in the future or might encourage them to maintain their policies as they are. However, President Biden will meet with President Sisi, so it is now important to discuss the situation of political and arbitrary detention, which has been endemic in Egypt during the past eight years, as well as explaining some of the strategies and plans that Egypt has announced recently and reveal the reality of those plans. “Egypt has announced a new strategy for human rights months ago and until now we haven't seen any real changes, while Egypt is announcing releasing detainees in rights cases announcing numbers like 200 people were released since last April when the president enacted a new amnesty committee. However, according to CFJ's statistics, we documented over 500 new arrests since last April until now, which is far more than the number of releases,” said Omar. Message to the US President:  Omar sent a message to the US president, saying: “Don't be fooled by strategies that are not really changing the situation, by efforts announced to only whitewash the reputation of states with a significant record of abuses. I feel this is the right time to hear more talk about human rights, we are tired of seeing meetings saying: 'Yes, we discussed human rights', without explaining what was discussed, and the consequences of that.” ---- #humanrights #equality #freedom #humanity #justice #cfjustice.org

Two days later, the French National Police opened an official investigation into Bourdon's disappearance. After taking the family's testimony, the investigation has been forwarded to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Bourdon case has begun to receive media attention, with several media outlets making comparisons with the case of Giulio Regeni The Italian student who disappeared before his dead body was found in the streets of Cairo. There are fears the Regeni scenario is being repeated. CFJ called on the UN group to intervene and urge the Egyptian authorities to immediately conduct an official and transparent investigation to reveal the whereabouts of Bourdon. It also called for the Giza Prosecution to obtain a copy of and share the surveillance camera footage from the bank where Bourdon made his last banking transactions. It also demanded an investigation into the identity of the police officer who appears to have been the last person to see Bourdon.
