مصر النسيم في الليالي وبياعين الفل

مصر السما الفزدقي وعصافير معدية

Egyptian blogs are reporting on the latest phenomenon sweeping the nation. Mass sexual assaults and attempted gang rapes took place in Downtown Cairo on the first day of Eid.

Honestly, i’m gobsmacked that this took place and that nothing was done to stop these appalling acts. This, despite the small police presence who refused to get involved or call for backup.

Again, nothing’s likely to be done because of the lack of coverage of this incident in the media. While Egyptian blogs are covering it, the pictures are not very clear and afterall, like every other problem in Egypt, this too will die down in a few days.
