Tora Prison
Since December 2013, Ayman Aly and four other members of Mursi's administration are held in captivity at the al-Aqrab unit in Tora Prison in Cairo. They face charges inter alia of being part of an illegal organization and distributing incorrect information that threatens national security. Ayman Aly and hundreds of other detainees went on a hunger strike at the prison to protest what they say are harsh treatment and conditions as well as a ban on personal visits.
