Long-time friend and colleague of Al Jazeera's Mahmoud Hussein writes a letter to the jailed journalist and his jailer, as Mahmoud has been jailed in Egypt for 500 days without charge [Al Jazeera]
Has it really been 500 days of you behind bars Mahmoud Hussein, my friend? How could your jailer do that? Maybe because they don't know you? Or maybe because they don't care about you and the people who love you? I am having hard time understanding why has your jailer snatched you from your family and friends without charge. Is it possible to excuse them for they don't know you as well as I do, your loyal friend for almost 30 years? Let me speak to your jailers then, perhaps they can learn a little of what I know about you?
