Giulio Regeni
Giulio Regeni was an Italian doctoral student and researcher who became widely known for his tragic story after being kidnapped and murdered in Egypt in 2016. His death sparked international outrage and highlighted concerns over human rights abuses in Egypt, particularly regarding the treatment of activists and foreign nationals. Regeni was conducting research on labor movements in Egypt when he disappeared, and his body was later found showing signs of torture. The case has become emblematic of the struggle for justice and accountability in the face of state violence, prompting ongoing calls for transparency and recognition of the plight faced by those who challenge oppressive regimes.
