Egypt borders: Libya, Sudan, The Red Sea, and The Mediterranean Sea. By: Kenzie Smith Egypt: Human Rights
Egypt: Human Rights • Treatment, punishment, equality between citizens. • 5th and the 2nd Articles in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. خمسةالمادة • Article 5 states that; no one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. Poor Human Rights
Egypt in many ways has violated this article, and therefore violated the Human Rights. The government is responsible for the violation, because during that chaos, the gunfire towards those harmless civilians who got injured was coming from the government security forces. An actual Human Rights researcher witnessed the shooting of a unarmed victim who was part of a sit in. Violation of human rights
Another instance where Article 5 was violated was when two policemen took a group of captured men to a back street and shot one man dead to the ground for nothing. This statement was told to Human Rights Watch researcher by a witness that lived on that street. The witness claimed that the man who was shot, had not provoked the policeman in any way, he also said that the two policemen were very hostile toward the men. اثنانالمادة Proof of violation in 5th article
•Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, color, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status. Furthermore, no distinction shall be made on the basis of the political, jurisdictional or international status of the country or territory to which a person belongs, whether it be independent, trust, non-self-governing or under any other limitation of sovereignty. 2nd article states:
The people in their country are not treated equal. The women are blatantly treated with less respect compared to men. Women who participate in public displays of disagreement risk harassment in their lives, such as verbal and physical abuse on the streets. Women were not included in the group that made the amendments to the constitution, and even now, Egyptian women are very poorly represented politically. Proof of violation in 2nd article
International Women's Day, men abused women who were protesting. One of the women told Human Rights Watch that the men who attacked them, hit the women. A woman told Human Rights Watch that men shouted at them. One woman told Human Rights Watch that the army asked them why they were demonstrating now. Proof
Any violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights would be horrible, but to violate not one, but two, or even more is monstrous, and for it to be the Articles that involve actual abuse, makes Egypt very poor in keeping their Human Rights kept together. end
