CONFIRMED 14 MAY 2008 from Mohammed’s legal aid lawyer:
“We managed to visit Borg el-Arab Prison today. It turned out that translator Mohamed Saleh Maree is detained as a criminal after he was detained in the company of US journalist James Buck. The latter was released by the police in Mahalla after pressures from his embassy, but Mohamed Saleh was kept in custody despite a release order from the prosecutor. We couldn’t back then find out where he was kept. Today we visited him, and he mentioned he was tortured by beatings and electric shocks in Mahalla’s State Security office. Mohamed was also banned by the prison administration from taking his exam at the university.”
