Award-winning human rights lawyer Mahienour El Masry arrested as over 300 detained during anti-Sisi protests in Egypt
Over 350 people have been arrested across Egypt in the latest wave of demonstrations against Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Al Sisi, according to a Cairo-based non-governmental organisation.
Egypt effectively banned protests under a law passed following President Mohamed Morsi's 2013 ouster. The protests came in response to calls for Sisi to step down by Mohamed Ali, a former army contractor, who accused Sisi and the military of corruption. Among those include journalists, students and activists, Mahienour El Masry, an award-winning human rights lawyer also arrested on Sunday.
