Italian woman taken to police station in Egypt amid custody battle

Nessy Guerra unable to return to Italy due to dispute over three-year-old child

Egyptian police went to the Cairo home

of Nessy Guerra, an Italian woman currently obliged to live in

Egypt with her three-year-old daughter due to a custody battle

with her estranged Egyptian husband, and took her to a police

station, the Italian foreign ministry said on Wednesday.

The ministry said Guerra was receiving assistance from the

Italian Ambassador Agostino Palese and the Consul Giulia De

Nardis.

The summons seems to be related to an order by an Egyptian judge

saying the father must have access to the child.

The estranged husband has a criminal record for a number of

offences in Italy and was recently arrested—and subsequently

released on bail—for making threats against the Italian Consul

in Hurghada.

The Italian government is currently exerting high-level pressure

on Egyptian authorities to ensure the maximum protection for

Guerra and her child, above all to prevent further incidents of

violence or threats from the husband, the foreign ministry said.
