British-Egyptian woman arrested in Cairo over sister's criticism of Sisi regime

Eman el-Shazly, a 45-year-old British-Egyptian woman from Birmingham, was arrested in Cairo on 16 August while visiting Egypt. Her lawyers say she was detained to silence her sister Mona, a prominent critic of President Sisi's government who runs a YouTube channel based in the UK. The UK Foreign Office has been asked to intervene to secure her release.
