Trial of Abdel-Fattah, 24 other activists to resume Tuesday
Defendants are accused of organising an illegal protest and using violence against police at a demonstration against military trials of civilians

Ahram Online Published in Ahram Online on 11 - 11 - 2014

The retrial of Alaa Abdel-Fattah and 24 other activists, for their alleged involvement in a protest last year against military trials of civilians, is to resume on Tuesday.
On 11 June, they were given 15-year sentences for organising an illegal protest, rioting, destruction of public property and using violence against the security forces.
They were also fined LE100, 000 (about $14,200) each.
Abdel Fattah and three other defendants were released on 15 September on a LE5,000 bail each pending their retrial.
On 27 October, the judge ordered the detention of 20 of the defendants who turned up at court for the retrial.
Abdel-Fattah's sister, Sanaa Seif, and 22 other defendants were also sentenced last month to three years in jail by another court on similar charges of breaching a law which bans protests not previously approved by authorities.
A number of activists, including Abdel-Fattah's family, have started a hunger strike in protest at the sentences.
