CAIRO – 8 November 2022: Democratic Generation Party denied in a statement Tuesday, the British demands of releasing ‘criminally-convict Alaa Abdel Fattah’, who is in jail based on a judicial ruling.

“All statements issued by the UK government in this regard is completely denied even if Alaa was a holder of the British nationality” Democratic Generation Party stated.

The statement explained that even if Alaa was a British citizen, he should’ve abided by the Egyption law.

Naji Al-Shihabi, Head of the Democratic Generation Party and General Coordinator of the National Coalition of Political Parties, “expressed his surprise at the insistence of some human rights organizations to use the COP27 Climate Summit for political issues in violation of the climate summit.”

The party also considered the British government’s demands to release Alaa Abdel-Fattah as an “unacceptable interference in Egyptian internal affairs”, which is a violation of international law and the Charter of the United Nations.

Al-Shihabi stressed the party’s rejection of all forms of ‘seeking other foreign countries, organizations aid against Egypt’. He noted that the Presidential pardon committee that was formed earlier is ‘operating according to specific mechanisms and has already succeeded in releasing more than a thousand prisoners and detainees.’

Egyptian MP Amr Darwish was demanded out from a press conference for Sanaa Abdel Fattah in Sharm El sheikh, Tuesday after commenting on her speech regarding her brother’s Alaa Abdel Fattah situation.

In statements to ET, Amr said that “after commenting on Sanaa’s allegations, she didn’t reply, and one of the conference’s organizers came asking me out, and that she is not going to reply because the conference has ended, which was not true.”

Sanaa demands freedom of opinion, but she prevents it from others,” MP Darwish said.

Darwish who is a member of the Coordination's Committee of Party's Youth Leaders and Politicians [CPYP] added that “Sanaa was trying to turn her brother's case through her statements from a criminal prisoner to a political prisoner” and when I started to comment on her statements like another participant at the conference she denied answering, and said that she is not going to reply to ‘Egyptian authorities’.

“I was not representing any kind of authorities inside the conference”, Darwish said, explaining that “addressing the Egyptian authorities has its own channels”.

Darwish noted that, “Sharm El sheikh is currently hosting a conference to save the planet [referring to COP27], what dose has to do with her brother’s situation?!”
