Reliable reports claim that one out of every three Egyptian women have reported having been beaten by their husbands, ICC says.
Children are equally likely to be abused.
ICC discovered that an increasing number of young Christian women are prone to being abducted by Muslim men, raped and forced to convert to Islam. In such cases, Christian women have no legal recourse and fear for their own welfare should they protest. Women and men alike commonly lose custody of their children to their Muslim spouse after changing their religion from Muslim to Christian, ICC says. Nevertheless, the reverse rarely, if ever, has ever applied to a Christian who becomes a Muslim. Mr. Basam William Alaim was influenced to convert to Islam while undergoing therapy in a Muslim mental hospital known as Azhan, which is known for its effort throughout the Arab world to spread Islam.
