Egypt's president pardons jailed activist Douma amid criticism of 'cosmetic' human rights gestures

Egyptian President Sisi pardoned activist Ahmed Douma, jailed since 2019 for protests against Mubarak.
Douma was a prominent figure in the 2011 pro-democracy protests that ousted Mubarak.
Sisi has recently pardoned some activists, but critics say it's a cosmetic gesture as arrests continue.
Other high-profile activists like Alaa Abd el-Fattah remain imprisoned.
Rights groups continue urging Egypt to release political prisoners and allow free speech.
