One year ago, Soltan decided to go on a hunger strike.
Free Soltan
Mohamed Soltan, 26, is a civilian journalist and an activist. His passion, which saw him covering the pro-Morsi Rabaa Al-Adaweya protests and the subsequent bloodshed on August 14th 2013, has been used against him.
Arrested on August 25th 2013 in a raid that was intended to arrest his father and Muslim Brotherhood official Salah Soltan, Mohamed’s family says he has been accused of spreading false news regarding the “operation of Rabaa” case.
To protest his innocence, Mohamed Soltan has been on a hunger strike since January 26 2014 – a hunger strike that is now seeing his life in extreme danger.

one year and 6 days of hunger strike
The trial has been postponed to February 1st 2015. Mohamed will have completed 371 days, that is one year and 6 days of hunger strike. He will have been in prison for 1 year, 5 months, and 7 days. A total of 525 days.
As a reminder : Mohamed was detained from his home, when they weren't even looking for him. A warrant for his arrest was issued two days after he was in their custody. Mohamed is held on trumped up charges, and not a shred of evidence has been brought against him. Mohamed is part of a case that has 51 others, and there is only one witness who has testified against all 51.
Free Soltan.
WASHINGTON — “Last year I put my hands up like #Mike Brown did and the Egyptian police shot me twice with bullets my US gov’t paid for!” wrote Mohamed Soltan, 26, in a letter from a prison cell in Egypt.
“There was no comparison of course, this test is much more extreme and definitely more painful,” he wrote, but he said he believed that he would be “molded by God to be a wiser human, an effective leader, and a stronger advocate of freedom and peace.”
Soltan in court today on his 27th birthday. (2nd birthday in jail!) The trial got postponed yet again to the 1st of December. Soltan is now on day 294 of his hunger strike...
Soltan's next trial is in 5 days! Don't forget to keep him in your constant prayers. Free Soltan! Save Soltan!
