Home After 4 Years in Egyptian Prisons

Ibrahim Halawa went to visit his family in Egypt but ended up spending four years in jail

Ibrahim Halawa was not yet 18 when he went to visit his family in Egypt in 2013. He had planned to go to the party island of Ibiza before heading home to Ireland but instead he found himself caught up in the protests which followed the ousting of the former president and ended up spending four years in prison.
