In the last six months of imprisonment, he has started a hungry strike against the conditions he considered unfair.

“I experienced many difficulties in prison. It is not correct that the government should tear me away from my family, keep me in these horrible conditions, only because of the faith in which I will peacefully decide to believe, ”Abdo quoted. “I thank everyone who prayed for me while I was in prison, cared for and went to my business, and shared the joy of being released from prison.”

Adf International has submitted a case to the UN Working Group on arbitrary detention. Despite the fact that his release was removed from prison, the trial did not end against him, the group said.

His son Husam Baki expressed disappointment because of his lack of freedom to believe and openly talk about personal beliefs. “It is disgusting that people are not allowed to believe and express their beliefs freely and prisoners or kill their faith,” he said.

“Arbitrary detention of this man and father without criminal trial, as well as the inability to protect him from or predictable offenses.

During the Abdo’s detention, he received moral support from Ayan Hirska Ali, a researcher at the University of Goover University of Stanford University.

The behavior of Abdo as “grotesque” was characterized, she called his imprisonment “a surreal example of censorship policy of blasphemy in action.” Ali, once widely identified as an atheist, announced in November last year, which became a Christian. “This is a logical conclusion about a tendency that allows the authorities to brutally cruelly cruelly deduct people in free expressions on social networks. From China to Pakistan, from Russia to Syria, from the UK to Egypt – the trouble -free language should be urgently protected from Stalinism of our age. “

Ali, who advocates global rights, also faces threats to its criticism of the Muslim Brotherhood.
