Angela Merkel, Chancellor of Germany
Ahmed Mansour, a well-known journalist & interviewer with AlJazeera, has just been arrested in Germany -- even though Interpol itself rejected Egypt's request to arrest him last year.
This appears to be the latest in a slew of attempts to silence critical voices in Egypt on politically-motivated charges, and comes just two weeks after The Military Coup leader Abdel Fattah El-Sisi visited Germany.

Also, there is no meaning to arrest Mansour for his interviews with guested that Germany does not like because this is against Media rights that are guaranteed for journalists.

Let's join together to call for Mansour's freedom now!"
