Seif, an opinion writer and filmmaker, went to Tora Prison to receive a letter from her brother, blogger Alaa Abd El Fattah, where she was attacked. When reporting the crime against her, Seif was abducted by plainclothes policemen. She was then detained on charges of “spreading false news,” “inciting terrorist crimes,” and “misuse of social media.” She completed an 18-month prison term on December 23, 2021.
