The National Council for Women (NCW) hailed on Wednesday President Abdel Fattah El Sisi's visit to a woman who was sexually assaulted by a mob in Tahrir Square during celebrations marking his inauguration.
"This visit sends a strong message that the Egyptian woman's dignity will not be touched anymore," NCW head Mervat Tallawy said.
A graphic video of a mob harassing and stripping a woman off her clothes began circulating online late on Sunday, despite last week's decision to enforce harsher punishments on sexual harassers.
