Cairo: Reporters Without Borders (RSF) on Monday called on the Egyptian authorities to release a blogger arrested while covering a strike at a textile plant in the Nile Delta.
Kareem Al Beheiri was arrested on April 6 at the Misr Spinning and Weaving company where he worked in the industrial city of Mahalla after riots left three people dead and hundreds detained.
"We are worried about Beheiri's health as he is being mistreated and has gone on hunger strike," the international press freedom organisation said.
