MP Suggests Suspension Due To Crimes"},"content":{"rendered":"
Egyptian Member of Parliament and the Human Rights Committee in the House of Representatives, Amal Salama, Proposed a temporary suspension of ride-hailing applications due to the alarming rise in crime related to these apps.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Amal suggested that these applications be temporarily suspended until they comply with the safety procedures outlined by Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly in 2019.<\/p>\n Salama’s proposal comes after a nationwide call to regulate safety procedures on applications similar to Uber and in-Drive after the rise of a series of crimes including attempted abduction, assault, and indecent assault.<\/p>\n The most recent crime involves a <\/span>German tourist<\/span> who reported that <\/span>her Uber driver tried to assault and kidnap her.<\/span> The driver was later sentenced to 3 years in prison.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Additionally, a user on X, just reported her in-Drive captain assaulted her after he wasn’t satisfied with the agreed-upon fare (EGP 55), he demanded she pay him an additional EGP 180, and an extra 20 for the air conditioner.<\/p>\n When she refused, he started driving angrily, while verbally harassing her, locked the car’s doors, and refused to let her out.<\/p>\n Alarmed by his actions, the passengers started calling loudly for help. Finally, when young men spotted the woman in distress, they promptly helped her, while the driver escaped.<\/p>\n \u0627\u0646\u0627 \u0644\u062d\u062f \u062f\u0644\u0648\u0642\u062a\u064a \u0645\u0634 \u0639\u0627\u0631\u0641\u0647 \u0627\u062a\u062e\u0637\u064a \u0627\u0644\u064a \u062d\u0635\u0644 \u0645\u0639\u0627\u064a\u0627 \u0648\u0642\u0644\u0628\u064a \u0645\u0642\u0628\u0648\u0636 \u0631\u0639\u0628 \u060c\u0637\u0644\u0628\u062a \u0627\u0646 \u062f\u0631\u0627\u064a\u0641\u0631 \u0644\u062d\u062f \u0645\u0648\u0644 1 \u0627\u0644\u0631\u062d\u0627\u0628 \u0648\u0628\u064a\u0646\u064a \u0648\u0628\u064a\u0646\u0647 10 \u062f\u0642\u0627\u064a\u0642 \u0628\u0627\u0644\u0638\u0628\u0637 \u0648\u0627\u0644\u0627\u062c\u0631\u0647 \u0627\u0644\u064a \u0645\u0648\u0627\u0641\u0642 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647\u0627 \u0648\u0645\u0643\u062a\u0648\u0628\u0647 55 \u0641\u0636\u0644 \u064a\u0644\u0641 \u062c\u0648\u0647 \u0627\u0644\u0631\u062d\u0627\u0628 \u0648\u0644\u0645\u0627 \u0648\u0635\u0644\u062a \u0628\u064a\u0642\u0648\u0644\u064a \u062d\u0633\u0627\u0628\u0643 180+20 \u062a\u0643\u064a\u0641 !! \u0628\u0642\u0648\u0644\u0647 \u062f\u064a \u0627\u0644\u064a \u0639 \u0627\u0644\u0627\u0628\u0644\u0643\u064a\u0634\u0646 \u061f\u061f\u0627\u0632\u0627\u064a \u064a\u0639\u0646\u064a \u0648\u0627\u0644\u0645\u0633\u0627\u0641\u0647 \u0642\u0644\u064a\u0644\u0647 \u0627\u0648\u064a \u0641 \u0639\u0644\u064a \u0635\u0648\u062a\u0647 pic.twitter.com\/0NQ05hFicK<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 jana\u2728\ud83c\udfb6 (@Janaelhawy9) May 2, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/p>\n
