Egyptians’ Safety Fears Mount After Revolution – But fewer report being assaulted or having money stolen
by H.A. Hellyer (Gallup) – 01.11.2011
Egyptians feel less safe now than they did before the uprising that led to former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak’s departure from office. Gallup surveys show 38% Egyptians in July through August 2011 say they do not feel safe walking alone at night in the city or area where they live, down from 51% in June, but considerably higher than in previous years.
At the same time, Egyptians have become less likely to report that they have been assaulted or had their money stolen during the same period. The percentage of Egyptians who say they had their money or property stolen dropped to 8% in July through August 2011 from 13% in November 2010. Those saying they were victims of assault in the same period dropped from 7% to 3%.
