Egyptian bloggers to expose torture

Egyptian bloggers, long at the forefront of exposing human rights abuses, are planning an online "festival" of torture videos during this week's Cairo film festival. According to an Egyptian Mail article, a blogger named Walid has organised the exposure of "controversial acts of torture allegedly committed by the security authorities." Prizes, including a "golden whip," will be awarded to the best entrants. (Via Middle East Times)
