"A mosque in suburban Cairo was used by Islamic hardliners to terrorize a Christian and anti-Islamist protestors in suburban Cairo in March. Amir Ayad was asked for his ID by who he thought were police. Members of the Muslim Brotherhood hit him unconscious and Amir woke up on the floor of the mosque. “Inside the mosque I was tortured, naked…my hands were tied behind my waist. They came with thick wooden sticks and metal rods and started to strongly hit my legs and arms in order to break my bones,” Amir said. According to Amir, the facility was installed in order to scare protestors who disagreed with the Brotherhood’s policies, saying that he was beat alongside nine other demonstrators. Christians and liberals are growing increasingly concerned with the Muslim Brotherhood’s failure to protect religious minorities."
