The country s biggest media baron, who happens to be the head of state security, expands his media empire by abusing the courts.

This post is part of our special coverage of Egypt Protests 2011. It wasn't long after the dismissal of former Egyptian Prime Minister Ahmed Safik that some Egyptians attacked the headquarters of the infamous State Security (Amn El Dawla in Arabic) in several cities like Alexandria, Ismailia and others on March 4. Soon, protesters moved on to the apparatus' main headquarters in Nasr City in Cairo on March 5.

The situation escalated rapidly when the administration threatened to call state security to break the sit in, but employees confirmed they will continue their open strike till their demands are fulfilled.

The concept of security includes both State security and the security of the individual.

Some activists decided to do something similar to Wikileaks and published the State Security documents on the Internet like the ones found in the Damanhour HQ, which is located in ElBeheira governorate.

The SSI and its departments were responsible for many human rights violations, including mass torture and extra judicial killings, throughout Mubarak s 30 year rule.

Supervising the implementation of law, maintaining State security and protecting the rights of the citizens and the interests of the State.

In March 2011 when revolutionaries raided the state security service headquarters in Cairo which is notorious for torture and surveillance many people found their own files and transcripts of their communications. Since that time and up to the present day, public acknowledgment and realization of these surveillance practices has changed gradually.

Mr. El Derini was first taken to SSI headquarters in Lazoghly, where he was detained for two days before being transferred to the SSI branch in Nassr City.

The State called a colonel of the State Security Investigation Sector to testify against the complainant, to the effect that the complainant had had a leading position since 1980 in the Jamaa group, as well as links since 1983 with Ayman al Zawahiri, a central figure of the group.

In addition, the defendants' access to defence lawyers was restricted. Lastly, SSSC verdicts are not subjected to appeal.

On 26 April 2004, Mr. Marynich was apprehended by members of the State Security Committee (KGB) and placed in the KGB pretrial detention centre in Minsk.

Behind the brothers were other security agencies the Internal Security Forces, the Revolutionary Committees, and, to a lesser extent, the Jamahiriya Security Apparatus (Foreign Intelligence).

Acquitting the heads of the SSI and the CSF (the 300,000 strong institution that acted as the muscle of Mubarak s regime), after a revolution sparked by police brutality, led directly to renewed protests in Tahrir Square.

Prioritizing human security does not mean neglecting national sovereignty or State security.

State Security is nominally responsible for politically based security issues.

SSI agents interrogated him about his Shia faith and about fellow Shia Muslims.

On several occasions, SSI agents subjected him to serious physical assaults.

The source argues that this contention is borne out not only by the questions posed to him by his interrogators (see paragraph 6 above), but also by the fact that his arrest and detention are part of a larger crackdown by SSI agents on Egypt's Shia community.

However, that is a charge that could be levelled against the security service of any country in the world on whose territory a terrorist crime or act has taken place.

The Lebanese security services have demonstrated serious and systematic negligence in carrying out the duties usually performed by a professional national security apparatus.

The key to preventing violent conflict lies in an approach that emphasizes human security, that is the security of the people, as much as State security.

And, of course, The Left, which still counts large numbers of former Stasi personnel among its members, also calls for a reassessment of East Germany itself many party veterans object to the term dictatorship for this phase of their lives.

He did not came down, but sent the state's hand against students fighting for a better education.
