Shocking updates on #Egypt's National Women's Council.

@NCWegypt encouraged women to come forward as victims & witnesses to the horrendous #FairmontIncident. @MayaMorsy met them & promised to protect them.

They were violently arrested. Their intimate photos leaked to the media.

Brave women who started off as witnesses to the #FairmontIncident were made suspects over night.

Under arrest, their private photos were leaked to shift attention away from the wealthy young men who filmed themselves assaulting an unconscious girl in 2014.

@MayaMorsy is silent.

I am sure @MayaMorsy is under huge pressure from competing security agencies because of the names involved in the #FairmontIncident.

Still doesn't matter. Morsy must help #Release_The_Witnesses she promised to protect.

Tagging @NCWEgypt's partners/donors- @UNWomenEgypt @UN_Women

For the most recent updates on the frightening #FairmontIncident, please read @MadaMasr's piece from this morning.

My thoughts are with the brave women who risked everything, only to have their lives destroyed like this.
