Salafists urge ‘Harass Nude Girls’

The Facebook page of the Salafists Egyptian Youth Coalition declared a new campaign against women on Saturday, entitled “Harass Nude Girls.” The group’s organisers stated that the new campaign is the Egyptian version of the Saudi movement, “Harass Female Cashiers.” The announcement quoted Saudi writer Abdullah Mohammad Al Dawood’s original tweet. Dawood’s tweet urged Saudi men to molest women to discourage them from working or leaving the house. The youth coalition advised people not to give in to secular ideology, saying: "We know how the secular people will react. They are all influenced by the devil, but we will still extend our hand to all and urge you to us in this campaign.”
