On June 8th, FRANCE 24 brought you a special programme on sexual harassment in Egypt. FRANCE 24’s Sonia Dridi interviewed one of the few women brave enough to come forward after being raped in Tahrir Square, the epicentre of the Egyptian revolution.
Almost two years after the start of the revolution, Egyptians will soon vote on a new constitution. But from the outset, liberals and secularists have been against the text, saying that the Assembly that drafted it is dominated by Islamists. There are also complaints the text has been rushed through to bring an end to the political crisis. But the Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party says only a "Yes" vote can bring stability to Egypt.
The cosmopolitan city of Alexandria is considered an Islamist stronghold in Egypt, but it also has a significant proportion of Coptic Christians. With the election of Muslim Brotherhood candidate Mohamed Morsi, the Copts fear Egypt will go in a direction opposite to the one they wish. Salafists, who allied themselves with the Brotherhood during the presidential elections, are calling for Sharia law to be adopted throughout the country.
Egyptians go to the polls on Wednesday in the country's first truly contested presidential election. With an array of candidates to choose from, voters will decide who is the best candidate to lead them through the last phase of the country's troubled democratic transition. Our Cairo correspondents Kathryn Stapley and Sonia Dridi talked to some of the activists whose protests in Tahrir Square changed the course of Egypt's history.
Egyptians go to the polls tomorrow to vote for a new president for the first time since Hosni Mubarak was ousted during the revolution last year. Two of the front-runners in the presidential race with a realistic chance of winning are devout Islamists, which is troubling for Egypt's Coptic Christians. They are Egypt's largest religious minority and many of them don't think any of the candidates are capable of protecting them from the religious violence that has been steadily increasing.
Almost one year after former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak was ousted from power, violent protests and unrest are scaring tourists away. The final results of Egypt’s first post-revolution election could see Islamists playing a big role in the country’s new Parliament. Many in Egypt are concerned they may further damage the tourism industry which has suffered a heavy loss in revenues. Kathryn Stapley and Sonia Dridi went to find out more.
The trial of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak has gripped the nation. The 83-year old leader is in court charged with corruption and ordering the killing of protesters during the uprising at the start of the year. Our correspondents in Egypt take a closer look at how people in the country are reacting to the trial so far.
The Muslim Brotherhood was banned under the rule of former President, Hosni Mubarak. But the movement was legalised early in June and its members have now launched the 'Freedom and Justice Party', ahead of the general election in September. It's early days, but so far the party seems to be gaining momentum.
It's two months since Egypt's president Hosni Mubarak was ousted, after nearly 30 years in power. But now more demonstrators are in Tahrir Square, this time calling for his prosecution. As he left office, protesters discovered files detailing how the Egyptian state security police - a hated symbol of Mubarak's regime - used torture and informers to beat down any opposition to the former leader.
