All That Matters | Amal Clooney 'threatened with arrest' in Egypt @lookskewl087 | Uploaded 9 years ago | Updated 16 hours ago
London (AFP) - British human rights lawyer Amal Clooney claimed in an interview published Saturday that she was threatened with arrest in Egypt after identifying flaws in the judicial system that later contributed to the convictions of three Al-Jazeera journalists.
Clooney, a rights lawyer who married Hollywood star George Clooney in a lavish Venice ceremony last year, helped compile a report for the International Bar Association in February 2014 that raised questions about the independence of judges and prosecutors in Egypt.
"When I went to launch the report, first of all they stopped us from doing it in Cairo," she told the Guardian newspaper.
