Free Hanan from prison in Egypt

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

Hanans' husband was last seen injured when at protest in 2013. He then disappeared at the hands of Egyptian secret services-so she began searching, even setting up groups for families with similar problems. But when at a prison, she was detained and imprisoned for being part of a banned group.
Call on President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi to:
•Drop all charges against Hanan immediately and unconditionally

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

This isn't something the UK Government or Parliament could do.

If you'd like the UK Government to raise this case with the Government of Egypt, you could start a new petition asking for that to happen.
