On 5 August, Alkarama sent an urgent appeal to the United Nations Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances (WGEID) regarding the disappearances of Mahmoud Saleh Mohammed Ali and Hassan Saleh Ahmed Mohammed respectively arrested by Egyptian security and police forces on 7 June and 5 July 2015. Both are at high risk of torture in retaliation for their alleged political affiliations or with the aim to force them confess to crimes that they did not commit, as is often the case in Egypt. Meanwhile, the authorities continue to deny their detentions.

On 5 August 2015, Alkarama called upon the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention (WGAD) to intervene with the Egyptian authorities regarding the sentencing by Ismailia Military Court of Seif Al Islam Osama Shousha, a 16-year-old boy, to three years in prison and a 50,000 Egyptian pounds fine on 4 August. Arbitrarily detained since 3 August 2014, Shousha is the youngest individual prosecuted under political charges to be sentenced by a military court in Egypt, in violation of international human rights law.

On 22 July 2015, Alkarama sent an urgent appeal to the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention (WGAD) regarding the continuous detention of Esraa Mahfouz Mohamed El Taweel, a 23-year-old student who has been detained arbitrarily since her arrest on 1 June 2015. Esraa is at high risk of not walking again if she is not able to continue the treatment that she was prescribed after governmental forces shot her in the leg during the peaceful protests that marked the third anniversary of the 2011 revolution on 25 January 2014, as the bullet affected the nerves controlling her legs.

On 20 July 2015, Alkarama sent an urgent appeal to the United Nations Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances (WGEID) regarding the case of Mahmoud Tawfik Abdalaal, a 55-year-old former parliamentarian of the Freedom and Justice Party (FJP) – the political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood – disappeared since his arrest on 6 June 2015. Diagnosed with cirrhosis and Hepatitis C prior to his arrest, he is unlikely to be granted the medical care his health requires during his secret detention by the Homeland Security. Because of his political affiliations he is also at high risk of torture, a widespread practice in Egypt against real and alleged political opponents.
