A proposed amendment to Egypt’s Penal Code has reignited an important debate about violence against women, the concept of “honour killings”, sexual violence, and the role of the law in protecting victims. Member of Parliament Fatma Adel, representing the Justice Party, has introduced a draft bill proposing significant changes to the country’s Penal Code, Law No. 58 of 1937. The proposed legislation seeks to eliminate legal leniency in cases commonly described as honour killings, introduce tougher penalties for rape and sexual assault, and restrict the circumstances in which judges can reduce sentences for serious offences. At the heart of this proposal lies a fundamental question: should cultural expectations, family reputation or claims of personal honour ever provide justification for violence? One of the most significant aspects of the proposed legislation concerns Article 237 of the Penal Code. The draft bill seeks to classify the killing of a spouse, former spouse, or someone caught committing adultery with a spouse as premeditated murder.

The operator of Glasgow’s museums announced on 2 November that it had received a request to return to Egypt the mummified remains of an ancient priest named Nekht, which were recently taken off display at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Scotland. Glasgow Life, which operates the museum, confirmed receiving the request but could not say where it came from. According to Sunday Post, “Egyptian authorities” had asked for Nekht’s return. “We have received a request in the last few days to repatriate the Nekht remains to Egypt,” a spokesperson said. “Glasgow has a well-established process for repatriation requests. We will follow this process to guide our next steps.” The request follows a report that Nekht and other ancient Egyptian human remains had been removed from public view. Glasgow Life said that displaying remains without documented, informed consent from the deceased or, where appropriate, their descendants was no longer considered respectful. Nekht is believed to have lived between about 1985 and 1797 B.C. His remains were excavated at Beni Hasan, in Middle Egypt, in the early 20th century and donated to Glasgow in 1923. They had been shown insideContinue reading "Glasgow Museums Receive Request to Return Ancient Priest’s Mummy to Egypt"
