Yasin El Sammak, 22, and his 15-year-old brother arrived outside an Egyptian diplomatic building in Manhattan last week, planning to film a small protest urging the country to do more for residents of Gaza suffering from starvation. Instead, video provided by Egyptian activist Husam Khaled shows Egyptian government personnel dragging the pair off the street and into the building, where they were repeatedly pummeled, thrown to the ground and whipped with a metal chain. New York City police then arrested El Sammak and his younger brother on felony assault and strangulation charges, even as witness testimony and footage from the scene appeared to contradict a narrative given to police by Egyptian officials.
