On 11 December 2014, Alkarama sent a communication to the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention (WGAD) regarding the cases of five Egyptian citizens currently detained for their political views, Hudhayfah Magdy Abdel Moneim Abdel Fattah; Hossam Zaki Mohammed Mohammed; Ahmed Mahmoud Ahmed Hassan; Mahmoud Mohamed Mohamed Al Saghir; Mohamed Ahmed; and Mohamed Ibrahim. Several months after their arrest, they all remain to be tried, and are held in particularly harsh conditions in the Tora and Burj Al Arab prisons.

During its last session in Geneva, the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention (WGAD) released its opinion (35/2014) regarding Alkarama's communication sent on 8 May 2014 regarding the detention of Khaled Mohamed Hamza Abbas and four other individuals arrested with him, Adel Mostafa Qatamish, Ali Thabit Ezzedin, Zain El Abidine Mahmoud and Tariq Ismail Ahmed. Finding that their detention was arbitrary and contrary to international human rights law, the Working Group experts called for their immediate release.

Alkarama denounces the recent mass death sentences of 188 Egyptian citizens, including 53 in absentia, by the Gizeh criminal court in the trial regarding the 14 August 2013 attack on Kerdasa police station, a few hours after the massacres of Raba'a Al Adawiya and Al Nahda.

On 6 November 2014, Alkarama sent an urgent appeal to the Special Rapporteur on Torture (SRT) concerning the case of Sabri Ahmed Mehdi, a father of six detained and tortured since his arrest by the Egyptian authorities on 22 July 2014.
