Egypt
Govt to tackle Sexual harassment as Inauguration Assaults Spark OUTRAGE . . .
Newly
elected Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has ordered his government to
battle sexual harassment following a string of sexual assaults during
inauguration celebrations on Sunday.
Seven
men between the ages of 15 and 49 were arrested on Monday for attacking women
during festive celebrations following Sisi's inauguration ceremony on Sunday,

mounted over a graphic video showing an apparently sexually harassed woman
leaving the scene of the celebrations.

criminalizes sexual harassment for the very first time. Under the law, abusers

Egyptian pounds (US$420).

Spring protests, Sisi “instructed the minister of interior...to vigorously
enforce the law and take all necessary measures to combat sexual harassment, an
unacceptable form of conduct," the presidency said in a statement on
Tuesday.
"The
president calls on all citizens to undertake their part to reinstate the true
spirit of ethical and moral values in Egyptian society...This should come in
parallel with the state's efforts to robustly enforce the law."

the shaky video posted on YouTube on Sunday, one can see a partially nude woman
with severe bruises on her back and hips being dragged away from the crowd –
the remains of her clothing ripped in the process – by a policeman taking her
to an ambulance.
