Legal recognition of the Nadeem Centre for the Rehabilitation of Victims of Violence11
In 2006, the Nadeem Centre for the Rehabilitation of Victims of Violence was finally registered and granted legal personality under the name of the Egyptian Association Against Torture (EAAT).
In July 2003, the Centre, wishing to bring its legal status in line with the 2002 Law No. 84 on associations, filed the required documents for its registration as EAAT with the Ministry of Social Affairs. However, its request was dismissed on the basis of technical irregularities and the Centre lodged an appeal challenging this decision.
