Rasha Azab, a 28-year-old woman reporter for the weekly newspaper Al-Fajr, was arrested while covering a sit-in in Tahrir Square. Members of the security forces handcuffed and slapped her and took her into the nearby National Museum, where she was held for about four hours and beaten again. She and five other journalists were then taken before a military prosecutor, who ordered their release.
