I thank the Minister. What is worrying is Egypt's diabolical justice system. Currently, 492 individuals are awaiting a mass trial and Ibrahim is one of them. Even the EU has rightly criticised Egypt's record on selective justice because it is slightly archaic. I understand the Government is trying to do its best to free him but I reiterate that if there is no conclusion by the end of June in his case, the Taoiseach should intervene directly.
