UN Watch & Egyptian rights activists urge global human rights prize to cancel nomination of Mona Seif for advocating violence against civilians
Amr Bakly:
"The Martin Ennals Award is not for terrorist supporters. . . Mona Saif is a terrorist supporter!"
GENEVA, April 30, 2013 – A jury comprised of 10 of the world's leading human rights organizations, including Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, has
nominated an Egyptian activist for a premier human rights prize, even though she "
Tweets for terror," said the Geneva-based UN Watch, a non-governmental human rights monitoring organization, which sent a letter today urging the cancelation of Mona Seif's nomination.
