CAIRO (Reuters) – A court on Wednesday sentenced one of Egypt’s best-known activists, Ahmed Douma, to 15 years’ jail for rioting and attacking security forces in 2011, judicial sources said.
The ruling is part of what rights groups term the worst crackdown on activists since the military ousted Islamist President Mohamed Mursi five years ago.
