Egyptian Police Using Dating Apps to Imprison LGBT+ People
Channel: Atheist Republic
Date: 2020-10-13

In a crackdown on the LGBT+ community, Egyptian security forces are entrapping citizens using dating apps, throwing them into jail, and subjecting them to systematic torture and abuse, according to Human Rights Watch (HRW). Reportedly, police are creating fake accounts to meet people in the LGBT community, at which point they are detained and their phones subjected to unlawful searches. One gay man reports that "They beat me and cursed me until I signed papers that said I was ‘practicing debauchery’ and publicly announcing it to fulfill my ‘unnatural sexual desires’.” All 15 people interviewed by HRW reported various forms of torture and abuse while imprisoned, including forced "virginity" and anal exams.
