The detention of these people was then renewed several times, in some cases for months or years, before a judge finally ordered their release with probation.\nHowever, in each case, instead of ordering the release of the detainees, the State Security Prosecution Service charged them with new offenses, resuming the same charges or similar charges, and ordered their release custody. During their prolonged pre-trial detention, detainees were interviewed only during the first week.\nAmnesty International maintains that these cases echo a common practice under former President Hosni Mubarak&#8217;s regime: the police were unaware of the judicial decisions ordering the release of the detainees and readmitted them under the State of Emergency Law, which allowed maintaining people in administrative detention without charges or trial for an indefinite period. The Supreme Constitutional Court abolished the article authorizing administrative detention under the State of Emergency Act in June 2013.\n","author":42,"featured_media":5806,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","tags":[5761,5750,5759],"location":[5600],"class_list":["post-28566","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-decision-makers","tag-news","tag-politics","location-egypt"],"short_url":"","have_related_news":null,"chapo":"According to a recent Amnesty International (AI) report, Egyptian authorities are increasingly inclined to return to arbitrary arrest instead of applying judicial release orders; thus resulting in a state of perpetual imprisonment.
