The purpose of this press conference is to detail two important events which have occurred recently in Egypt Voice of the Copts coordinated with Hegazy’s attorney in Egypt, Mr. Ashraf Edward, and the director of the European Center for Law and Justice, Dr. Gregory Puppinck, to bring this case to an international level by submitting an application to the United Nations Special Rapporteur seeking justice.We cannot be certain if the United Nations will succeed in enabling Mr. Hegazy and his family to live and practice their faith freely in Egypt.
We at Voice of the Copts realize that in today’s environment of political correctness the most serious issues cannot be resolved with honesty.
