On 2 September 2015, Alkarama sent an urgent appeal to the United Nations Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances (WGEID) regarding the cases of 20-year-old student, Abdelrahman Attef Hussein and 31-year-old employee Hani Said Kahla, both disappeared since their respective arrests by the police on 11 July and 19 August 2015. Despite the testimonies of witnesses to their arrests, and the numerous steps taken by their families to find them, the authorities continue to deny their disappearances. Secretly detained, they are at high risk of torture, a widespread practice in Egypt, particularly against real and alleged political opponents, but also against students.

On 28 August 2015, Alkarama sent an urgent appeal to the United Nations Working Group on Enforced and Involuntary Disappearances (WGEID) regarding the abduction of Mohamed Abdelaziz Farag, 54, his 18-year-old son, Abdelaziz Mohammed Abdelaziz Farag, and his 61-year-old brother, Ismael Abdelaziz Farag. All disappeared following their abduction, from their home in Shubra, by the Homeland Security on 23 August 2015. Threatened twice by Homeland Security officers since the abduction of their three relatives, the Farag family has stopped looking for them but fear that they will be tortured during their secret detention.

On 3 September 2015, Alkarama sent an urgent appeal to the United Nations Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances (WGEID) regarding the enforced disappearance of journalist and member of the Muslim Brotherhood, Mosab Abdalla Abdelhamid Morsy Hamed, in early July 2015. This journalist from Egyptian satellite opposition news channel Misr Alaan TV went missing following his abduction, by the Homeland Security, from his family home in the city of Tanta, 100km north of Cairo. Despite the strong media coverage of his abduction and the numerous steps taken by his relatives to locate him, Mosab has not been seen in the past two months. Given his work and political affiliation, he is at high risk of torture during his secret detention.

On 16 August 2015, the Egyptian authorities enacted a controversial anti-terrorism law (Arabic version online) in spite of numerous international and local calls against it. Alkarama had sent a letter to different United Nations Special Procedures on 7 July 2015, including to the Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism (SRCT) asking them to call upon the Egyptian authorities to refrain from adopting such a law.
