Italy sentences three Egyptians over Regeni
Three Egyptian security officials have been sentenced to 10 years in prison in Italy after evidence linked them to the kidnapping and torture of researcher Giulio Regeni, whose tortured body was found in Cairo in 2016. The verdict included officials from the General Intelligence Service and the police, while a former National Security Agency officer was acquitted. This comes amid legal and administrative disputes between Italian and Egyptian authorities regarding the evidence and cooperation. This trial is considered one of the most prominent human rights cases and judicial collaborations between the two countries, as Italian laws were used to prosecute the defendants in absentia after delays in proceedings due to the defendants' presence in Egypt.
