> Egyptian student and activist Youssef Moursi has been held in pre-trial detention for six months, accused of involvement in a March 20 arson attack on a weapons factory in Pardubice; he denies the accusation. Ten others are also charged with “terrorism.” Activists and Moursi’s lawyer allege a growing crackdown on pro-Palestinian solidarity and question the prolonged detention and investigation.
