Detainees seen in videos allegedly showing torture in a Cairo police station inflicted their injuries on themselves, according to Egyptian authorities, who have charged the prisoners with spreading “fake news”.they suffered at the hands of police officers and security forces., appeared to show detainees hung in a stress position, with their hands fastened behind their backs.
Amr Magdi, of Human Rights Watch, who reviewed the videos for the Guardian, said: “Based on what I saw in the videos, they seemed authentic. Yet the prosecutor describes the injuries they sustained as being inflicted by the detainees themselves using a coin, which is completely illogical and doesn’t really match the kind of beating marks and wounds seen in the videos.”
Yes, it is fake and fabricated by an extremist Islamic group (Muslim brotherhood’s). Which is classified as terrorist grouping in many countries.
