A handful of protesters held a silent sit-in in front of the Public Prosecutor’s office Thursday, in solidarity with blogger Michael Nabil Sanad, who’s been sentenced by a military tribunal to three years in prison for “defaming the army.” Michael is currently going on a hunger strike against ill treatment.
