A review hearing was held this morning at the old Courthouse in Mansura on the Nile delta, in which it is decided on the provisional custody order issued against Patrick George Zaky, the student of the University of Bologna arrested on his return to Egypt on charges of subversive propaganda.
An appeal by Zaky's lawyers against the 15-day detention decided on February 8 is examined: if accepted, Patrick George will be released otherwise the hearing will be set for February 22 in which the judges will decide whether or not to extend the pre-trial detention another 15 days based on the possible need for further investigations.
