UN HUMAN RIGHTS CHIEF SEEKS DETAILS FROM EGYPTIAN AUTHORITIES ON
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
New York, Jul 19 2013 11:00AM
The United Nations human rights chief has requested detailed
information from the Egyptian authorities about the legal basis on
which the former president and his team are detained, arrest warrants
have been issued and the total number of people currently in custody
following the recent change in government.

High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay made the requests
during a 10 July meeting with the Egyptian Ambassador in Geneva, and
also transmitted them in writing to the Government two days later.

The crisis in the country escalated earlier this month, resulting in
the Egyptian military deposing President Mohamed Morsy amid widespread
protests in which dozens of people were killed and wounded. The
Constitution was then suspended and an interim government set up.

Ms. Pillay informed the Egyptian authorities that she would like to
deploy a team to follow the developments on the ground.

"We are waiting for the approval of the authorities, and a team is on
standby, ready to be deployed immediately as soon as such approval is
received," her spokesperson, Rupert Colville, <"

a news conference in Geneva.

Specifically, the High Commissioner has asked for a list of names of
persons against whom arrest warrants have been issued in connection
with the events on and after 3 July, when Mr. Morsy was ousted,
indicating who among these persons is now in detention, and
information about the legal basis upon which the warrants were issued.

She is also seeking information regarding the total number of people
who are currently detained in connection with the events on and after
3 July, whether on the basis of a specific arrest warrants or
otherwise, as well as the legal basis upon which the former president
and his presidential team are detained.
