MB leaders released after 7 day hunger strike
MB leaders, Dr. Gamal Heshmat and Ossama Suleiman were released Saturday afternoon and taken to a private hospital in a state of exhaustion after a hunger strike which lasted 7 days in protest to the unjust detention and inappropriate manner in which they were treated by security forces,
The Criminal Court had upheld the verdict which was issued by the Damanhour Misdemeanor Appeal Court to release the two after they were brought in by police on May 3.
