FILE - In this June 18, 2019 file photo, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi meets with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko in Minsk, Belarus. Several Egyptian rights groups are calling on a U.N. agency to rule out Egypt as the host of its conference on torture because of the country's dismal human rights record. The development came as Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi ratified on Wednesday, Aug. 21, 2019, a controversial bill regulating the work of non-governmental groups in the country, a law that activists and civil society groups have widely criticized as oppressive.
