LGBT+ Egyptians have shared their horrific stories of police raping, beating and planting false evidence on them. One man says police tied him up for three days, not letting him go to the toilet.
He says: ‘I had to wet my clothes and even shit in them.’ Meanwhile a woman reveals how a female police officer sexually abused her, causing her to bleed for days.
She says the officer ‘squeezed my breasts, grabbed my vagina and looked inside it, opened my anus and inserted her hand inside so deep that I felt she pulled something out of me’.
Many of the victims say the authorities planted evidence on them. They even put fake Grindr accounts and porn images on their phones.
