On 17 February 2015, Alkarama sent an urgent appeal to the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Torture (SRT) regarding the case of Mohamed Saïd Rizq, a 27-year-old Egyptian citizen repeatedly tortured by the security forces since his arrest on 27 August 2014. Held in deplorable detention conditions, Rizq is in a critical condition and still at high risk of torture.

On 11 February 2015, Alkarama wrote to the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the right to health (SRH) and the Special Rapporteur on Torture (SRT), regarding the cases of three Egyptian citizens who died in detention in late 2014. Abubakar Ahmed Hanafi, aged 46, Zaki Abu Hanafi Majd, 54, and Mahmoud Abdelrazak Shafie Rouby, 27, all lost their lives due to the lack of appropriate medical treatment.

On 12 February 2015, Alkarama wrote to the United Nations Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances (WGEID) and the Special Rapporteur on Extrajudicial, Summary and Arbitrary Executions (SUMX) asking these Special Procedures on human rights to urge the Egyptian authorities to duly investigate the arbitrary execution of 28-year-old mentally disabled, Ammar Youssef Zariea, and to put under the protection of the law his 61-year-old father, Youssef Zariea Salmi, disappeared since his arrest on 2 November 2013.

Alkarama welcomes the release of Peter Greste on 1 February 2015 after 400 days of arbitrary detention. It urges the Egyptian authorities to drop charges against Mohamed Fahmy and Baher Mohamed, detained with Mr Greste, who have been released on bail today pending retrial on 23 February 2015. Alkarama also invites the Egyptian authorities to open a thorough and impartial investigation into the arbitrary executions by the army of four journalists, Mick Deane, Ahmed Abdel Gawad, Mosab El Shami Rassd and Habiba Ahmed Abd Elaziz during Raba'a and El Nahda Squares' events on 14 August 2013.
