Younis Makhyoun, Chairman of the Salafi Nour Party, said police officers who tarnish the image of the Interior Ministry with their human rights violations are inadvertently encouraging the opposition to President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and the government.
He posted on Facebook on Monday evening: “At the time when the police are subject to criminal attacks while doing their duty to restore security, which needs the backing of the citizens, some of them violate the Constitution and human rights with oppression and torture.”
He added: “Security is achieved only with justice and respect for human dignity. We want the police to regain prestige only under the umbrella of the law.”
