The Egyptian authorities are preparing to forcibly return four Tunisian nationals, Ayman Hkiri, Ahamed Lahbib, Mohamed Almadiri and another man whose name is not known. If returned to Tunisia they would be in grave danger of torture. They are held at the al-Khalifa detention centre in the capital, Cairo. They have not been charged with any offence. Five other Tunisian nationals are reported to have been forcibly returned on 4 January.
