The news out of Egypt continues to be disturbing in many ways.
A leading human rights activist has called for an immediate investigation of reports that guards deliberately killed dozens of inmates at an Egyptian prison during the chaotic first days of Egypt's uprising.
At least 65 prisoners are believed to have been killed at al-Qatta Prison on the outskirts of Cairo, said human rights campaigner Hossam Bahgat, citing testimony by inmates and their relatives.
Thousands of prisoners across Egypt are believed to have escaped or been set free shortly after the revolt against longtime President Hosni Mubarak erupted Jan. 25. Bahgat said he and other activists are still trying to piece together what happened at the prisons.
