Egypt Judiciary Removes Nabeel Rajab’s Name from List of People Banned from Entering Country Nabeel Rajab’s name removed from list of people banned entering Egypt

AhlulBayt News Agency - Lawyer Ahmad Ragheb, appointed by prominent human rights activist Nabeel Rajab to represent him in Egypt, said that the administrative judiciary issued a verdict, removing Rajab's name from the list of people banned from entering the country.

This decision comes about four years after a case was raised requesting the removal of Rajab's name from the blacklist (November 2012).

Ragheb, who is an active human rights defense lawyer in Egypt, posted a tweet on his personal Twitter account on Thursday (July 28, 2016), saying: "Thank God, we got a verdict from the administrative judiciary in favor of Bahraini human rights defender Nabeel Rajab, thus he is no longer listed on the list of people banned from entering Egypt."
